08.15-10.00 from the sea watch hide:
Eider: 1E then drifted west
Velvet Scoter: 4E (party of 3 and singleton)
Red-throated Diver: 89E 11W
Great-crested Grebe: 27E 9 o/s
Gannet: 549E 73W
Cormorant: Present: n/c
Oystercatcher: 6E
Kittiwake: 4E
Guillemot: 42E
Razorbill: 1E
Auk sp: 39E
By the time I arrived at The Patch mid morning most of the roosting Gulls on the beach had been flushed by walkers, DW had already seen at least 10 Caspian Gulls there before they were flushed, but I still managed to see at least 3 including the regular German ringed bird X86C.
This afternoon from Dennis's Hide at least 5 Caspian and 3 Yellow-legged Gulls came in, very few birds came in until it was nearly dark and too late. Driving out of the reserve 2 Cattle Egrets flew over on their way to roost.
The Burt family found 4 Bewick Swans near The Woolpack on Walland Marsh, hopefully there will be plenty more.
