1st January 2009

The New Year was greeted by good numbers of waders and wildfowl. The Pale-bellied Brents had reached 131 plus 2 darks but there was also evidence of cold weather movement with 3 Lapwing flying west, a female Pintail, 41 Wigeon and 9 Teal. Waders included 150 Grey Plover and 2,000 Knot by Little Eye. A single Peregrine hunted the islands.
