With no sign of the Lesser Crested Tern in the Recording Area, although it remained in the estuary north of Starcross, the highlight was the first December record of Storm Petrel with one individual lingering off the seawall mid afternoon. Also offshore 28 Common Scoter, nine Great Crested Grebe and a Great Northern Diver.
Elsewhere 345 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 16 Great Crested Grebe, three Red-breasted Merganser and a second Great Northern Diver were in estuary, with at least seven Chiffchaff and four Goldcrest in the bushes and the Dartford Warbler on the Golf Course.
