Weather: SW 1/2 vis 35 mls
The main focus today was on repairing the damage to the
SK trap caused by storm Doris, with little time given to birding.
A Little Egret was south of middle eye and 2 Grey Herons flew
between middle and Hilbre. One of the 7 Meadow Pipits present was seen to be
ringed and gave a short display flight in the Heli garden, a definite sign that
spring is almost here. Two Pied Wagtails and 4 Linnets flew over the island. On
the sea were 65 Common Scoter and 2 female Scaup close in on the east side. The
only waders noted were 93 Redshank, 90 Turnstone, 3 Grey Plover and 137 Curlew.
