In unsettled conditions, a first-winter Glaucous Gull appeared in the estuary corner just after 09:00 where it was mobile and only remained for about 15 minutes before it flew WSW over the railway and disappeared inland. It was, surprisingly, successfully twitched, which served as a reminder that running for a bird can make all the difference between dipping and scoring. The female Scaup was also still present along the golf course shoreline so remains difficult to see from publicly accessible viewpoints.
