Sunday 20th March

The strength of the easterly wind reduced movement overhead but two Red Kite and 81 Lesser Black-backed Gull still moved through along with 18 Meadow Pipit, seven Siskin and a Rook.

Counts from the estuary included 274 Oystercatcher, 226 Dunlin, 108 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 61 Bar-tailed Godwit, 59 Snipe, 32 Redshank, 30 Grey Plover, 23 Knot, eight Sanderling, three Greenshank, two Mediterranean Gull and a Scandinavian Rock Pipit.

Elsewhere a Velvet Scoter was offshore with two Red-throated Diver and two Great-crested Grebe, a Wheatear was in Greenland Lake and seven Cirl Bunting, six Chiffchaff and two Goldcrest were in the bushes.
