A quick visit to the island before the tide to check on any storm damage
thankfully revealed the island & Obs had survived virtually intact. The
Brent Geese flock totalled 173 birds including one Dark-bellied Brent. Both
recent colour ringed birds were still present as was the obligingly photogenic
Snow Bunting. The only other passerines seen were the resident Dunnocks, Robins,
Wrens & Blackbirds. Despite the recent false there were no rare alcids - not
even a common guillemot! However, two Great-crested Grebes & a Red-throated
Diver were recorded.
