On the New Excavations a Slavonian Gebe showing well and a Bittern over the Christmas Dell reed bed. From the Denge Marsh Hide a Black-necked Grebe showing well and another Bittern over the reed bed. From the veiw point at Hookers another Bittern and a Water Rail but no Bearded Tits. On the ARC Pit 3 Smew (1 drake) a red head Goosander and 3 more Marsh Harriers. On Walland 79 Bewick Swans in 2 herds of 24 and 55 and the usual Tree Sparrows.
