An
early start was needed due to the tide and with the southerly airflow the
single observer was not disappointed with the first Stonechat of the Spring
appearing shortly after dawn quickly followed by 2 more.
A
couple of Grey Wagtail flew over continuing the early Spring theme and a party
of Common Scoter chased a lone female Scoter close into the East side of the
island enabling the observer to hear the calls of the displaying birds.
8000
Oystercatcher roosted on an undisturbed Middle Island with 250 Redshank and 210
Brent Geese.
Resident Wren and Dunnock were ready for spring.
A pair of Peregrines gave a good display.
Whilst Grey Plover showed well amongst the waders.
