A low tide afternoon visit on another grey overcast day, saw 400 Dunlin, 10 Ringed Plover and five Knot in the estuary along with 13 Shag, seven Great Crested Grebe, five Wigeon, three Greenshank, two Red-breasted Merganser and single Mediterranean Gull and Pale-bellied Brent Goose.
Elsewhere four Eider, two Great Northern and a Red-throated Diver were offshore, two Lesser Redpoll and single Firecrest, Goldcrest and Chiffchaff were in the Entrance Bushes and a Rook flew north.
Other Wildlife: Despite the mild temperature it was too dull and damp for most insects with only two Spotted Meliscaeva M. auricollis noted on the flowering Alexanders.
