Yestrerday mornings sea watch saw a reasonably close West bound Balearic Shearwater as the highlight, among a few west bound Sandwich and Common Terns, Gannets and Kittiwakes.
From Hanson the usual Avocets and Garganey up to 4 Green Sandpipers, 10 Common Sandpipers, 2 Black-tailed Godwits and a Cattle Egret of note.
On Burrowes The Little Stint, Wood Sandpiper, 2 Greenshank, several each of Ringed and Little Ringed Plovers, a Little Gull and c50 Common Terns and the usual wildfowl. Today was basically a repeat of yesterday without the Little Stint but other waders drop in and out through the day, Whimbrel, Turnstone, Knot, Redshank and Dunlin.
Little Stint at Firth yesterday, but no sign of it today.
