23rd January 2018

Weather: SW 4-5, 7/8 cloud, moderate vis

Six Eiders remained around the islands and 120 Common Scoters were close enough to check but nothing else of interest was found amongst them.

11 Purple Sandpipers was the best count for a while and a partial leucistic Oystercatcher was noted for the second time this week.

The returning colour-ringed Turnstone, ringed at Hilbre in 2007/08 was seen at the North End amongst the Brent Geese.
