Highlights of an evening visit included the first two Hobby of the year, singles E over the estuary and then Exmouth at 6.40 and E over the reserve 7.50, a female Yellow Wagtail feeding around The Bight, a rare spring bird on the deck and the first fledged Stonechat on Warren Point.
Counts from the estuary over the high tide included 49 Bar-tailed Godwit, 45 Whimbrel, 20 Dunlin, 19 Sanderling, 16 Ringed and seven Grey Plover, two Turnstone with single Greenshank and Redshank.
Offshore there were just six Manx Shearwater, five Common Scoter, three Sandwich Tern, two breeding plumaged Great Northern Diver and the female Eider.
