Counts from the estuary included 43 Sandwich Tern late afternoon after seven over high tide, 36 Bar-tailed Godwit, 12 Sanderling, 11 Grey and six Ringed Plover, nine Knot, eight Dunlin and the Pale-bellied Brent Goose.
Elsewhere the first Swallow of the year flew over The Bight, with two Wheatear in Wryneck Plain and a third on Warren Point.
