First thing this morning out in very frosty trapping area apart from a flushed Woodcock and Great Spotted Woodpecker very little of note was seen. Around the feeders Blue and Great Tits, a couple of Chaffinches and a Blackbird.
On The Point including The Patch no sign of the Glaucous Gull nor the 1w Caspian Gull (the latter turned up on the reserve ), on the sea c1,000 Great-crested Grebes, 200+ Guillemots and smaller numbers of Red-throated Divers, Gannets and Kittiwakes. Another Woodcock was seen coming in off the sea per MW.
On the reserve a Bittern was in the reeds alongside the entrance track per GP, 2 Caspian Gulls a 3w & 1w were seen from Makepiece and Firth, 2 Long-eared Owls could just about be seen behind the Dipping Pool, late afternoon an adult Yellow-legged Gull came into roost on Burrowes.
Once again still no Smew or wild Geese.
