Stagnant!

On my way to The Point this morning, I could see the 2 Black-throated divers on the New Diggings and 2 Great White Egrets at the south end of the ARC.

I spent half an hour looking at the sea where plenty of Guillemots and a few Razorbills were tooing and froing, along the colour change 100s of Black-headed Gulls feeding with smaller numbers of Kittiwakes, a few Gannets further out and 4 Red-throated Divers flew west. Very few of the bigger Gulls on the beach or in the roosts. Fairlight rung Herring Gull A3BJ was by the fish hut. 

 A look around the Scotney complex was disappointing with no wild Geese being seen around the main pit, but the Long-tailed Duck was still present and a flock of 40 Linnet was notable. The usual feral Geese, Dabblers, Lapwing and a few Golden Plover and Dunlin were insitu. Pigwell and the wash pit were virtually birdless apart from Black-headed Gulls and Starlings. 17 Pied Wagtails at the Lydd sewage works was notable.
This afternoon from Hanson 3 Smew, 5 Goldeneye, 2 Great White Egrets, 3 Marsh Harriers, a Bittern and good numbers of wildfowl.

Late this afternoon from Firth hide this Goosander which was joined by 3 more at dusk and 2 red head Smew. Once again I did not see the Glossy Ibis come in to roost(maybe its moved to Sandwich) a Red-throated Diver flew through as I left.
