3rd February 2010

Just a single Red-throated Diver today but there were 11 Red-breasted Mergansers and several good duck records. A flock of 60 Wigeon flew south followed by another flock of 20, a Pintail and a male Scaup were seen, also the Velvet Scoter that has been off the north end for the last week. Thirty five Shelduck were logged today (on some visits recently none could be found), also a high count of 670 Curlew and 7,000 Oystercatchers.
