27th February 2021

Weather: S, then NNW force 0/1    slight frost at first, sunny

A spring feel to the weather today was enhanced by Meadow and Rock Pipits singing. A pair of redhead Goosanders were one of the highlights as they flew over the obervers at the north end. In addition to the Brents other wildfowl were a male Red-breasted Merganser, a Pintail and a drake Eider. Sixteen Purple Sandpipers were amongst the usual waders, while on the sea was a Red-throated Diver, 25 Great Crested Grebes and 100 Common Scoter. A small movement of passerines included 2 Goldfinches, 4 Blackbirds, a Skylark, a Reed Bunting and 3 Woodpigeons passing through.
