I went no further than Dennis's Hide as there were not many Gulls with islands covered in Cormorants, also the bitter wind deterred me. The Great Northern Diver was still present at the far NE end of Burrowes along several Goldeneye.
There are still at least 12 Bewick Swans and 2 Whooper Swans still on Walland per DB.
