11th December 2020

Weather: Wind S, 0-1, cloudy & dull.

A brief visit today to carry out the WeBS Low Tide count, produced some fairly impressive wader counts including 8900 Oystercatcher, 8650 Knot, 2120 Dunlin and 211 Grey Plover. Eleven Purple Sandpipers fed at the north end. 1400 Common Scoter were offshore while 237 pale-bellied Brent Geese fed around the islands. On the sea were three Great Crested Grebe while a Red-throated Diver fished close in to the North end.

 A Peregrine and a Kestrel hunted the islands.
