11th March 2025

 Weather: N force 4

The wind being in the north, there was no sign of any migrants today on a post tide afternoon visit. Brent were counted at 220 individuals, 3 Eider were here and out to sea massive numbers of Common Scoter were seen (about 9,500). Among the waders were counts of 350 Sanderling, 500 Dunlin, 120 Turnstone, 135 Curlew and the usual few dozen Redshank.,


Records of Raven have increased in the last few years, one showed well today.


The dead dolphin seen on the 8th March may not have been the cetacean found on 1st March after all as the individual seen today could very well be a version of the 1st March sighting after several large gulls have fed on it.
