A good count of 228 Brent Geese included 3 colour ringed
birds, the male and 2 female Eider are still here and the pair of Mallard on
the pond.
Two Red-throated Diver were spotted on the sea along with 3
Great Crested Grebe, 9 Common Scoter and a single Guillemot.
The female Stonechat is still on the island and a lone
Starling landed briefly in the Heli garden, 2 Goldfinch flew over but did not
land. There was plenty of Meadow Pipit activity with 20 counted but only a
single Rock Pipit.
Only 1850 Oystercatcher were logged and other waders were
also noted in smaller numbers than of late.
A Peregrine was present around the island, as were the
maintenance team who completed a few jobs despite the blustery weather!
