Saturday 24th February

Another clear chilly day with the real cold yet to arrive. On a low high tide there was little to report in the estuary with c80 Wigeon, c40 Brent Geese, 22 Shelduck and 15 Teal along with the immature Eider and a Great Northern Diver. Elsewhere two more Great Northern Diver were offshore, four Shoveler were on the Main Pond, four Jackdaw were on Langstone Rock and a pair of Cirl Bunting were along the Back Path.
