A late afternoon visit saw 31 Great Crested Grebe, three Common Scoter, the three Eider and two Great Northern Diver offshore, with 432 Dark and a Pale-bellied Brent Geese moving between the mudflats and fields at Eastdon.
Elsewhere three Water Rail, a pair of Shoveler and single Chiffchaff and Goldcrest were around the Main Pond and half a dozen Wren roosting in a nestbox in the Entrance Bushes.
Year list addition:
98. Feral Pigeon
Other Wildlife: Not surprisingly no flying insects on a dull chilly day. Hidden insects included Lesne's Earwig under marram grass and Syntomus foveatus, a ground beetle, under driftwood.
