A low tide visit, so no meaningful estuary counts, the Cetti's Warbler remains around the car park, 16 Common Scoter were off the seawall and a pair of Mute Swan were by the Main Pond was a welcome sighting; the previous breeding male disappeared in November 2024 with the female remaining single throughout 2025, even incubating an unfertilised clutch.

Other Wildlife: Despite a sunny start the wind and temperature was keeping insects under cover including two black ground beetles; Mitten Blackclock Pterostichus nigrita and Great Blackclock Pterostichus niger on the edge of Dead Dolphin Wood.
