Both Bluethroats were showing well in Dengemarsh Gully this morning. The adult male that was frequenting the stream was slightly more elusive but much more comfortable to view as the viewing was in the cover of the gully out of the biting wind, whereas viewing of the 1w was in the full force of the icy blast. There are claims of up to 4 Bluethroats being present, though personally I only saw the 2 birds. A minimum of 5 Firecrests were present in the gully, a party of 24 Barnacle Geese flew over as well as a party of 20+ linnet.
The regular Glaucous Gull was seen on the reserve along with a Slavonian Grebe but apparently little else.
