5th January 2011

Impressive numbers of Cormorants were moving out the estuary early morning with 1,017 counted this morning. The sea produced 12 Red-throated Divers, 25 Great Crested Grebes, 2 Razorbill and 8 Guillemot as well as good count of 104 Common Scoters.

Four Mute Swans (2 adults and 2 juveniles) was an unusual mid-winter sighting for Hilbre.
