Wednesday 7th November

The overnight storm saw two Pomarine and a Great Skua south offshore first thing with 50 Gannet and 40 Kittiwake but passage soon halted. Counts from the estuary included an adult Yellow-legged Gull with 100+ Great Black-backed Gull, an increase to 25 Shelduck, a male Shoveler with the Wigeon and the Slavonian Grebe again with four Red-breasted Merganser.

Elsewhere an Eider was off Langstone Rock, eight Chiffchaff, six Redwing, two Goldcrest and a Blackcap were in the bushes with single Mistle Thrush and Redpoll overhead.
