Some of todays Red-throated Divers 
A cold dreary today with a stiff easterly breeze produced a surprisingly entertaining sea watch today. 
No sign of the Whooper Swans today but 47 White-fronted Geese at Cockles Bridge, later they flew onto the reserve presumably to roost. The Glossy Ibis and Cattle Egret were both reported as present today, also the long-tailed Duck and female Scaup reported present at Scotney. The usual Great White Egrets were being seen along with several Marsh Harriers and a Bittern.
Todays sea watch totals with SP, RW, CT & OL 07.25-10.55 & 13.30-14.55
