Weather: SE force 3
Two colour ringed birds were on the whaleback this morning, both ringed elsewhere. One of the 225 pale-bellied Brent present was holding a ring showing 'XJBB' and the other was the German ringed Curlew among the 180 that has been here for quite a while now. A single dark-bellied Brent was also sighted. Goosanders showed up again, this time there were 6 with 2 of them being males. Eighty five Shelduck and 220 Common Scoter were logged with a Great Crested Grebe. A survey of the gulls came up with 450 Herring, 6 Great Black-backs and 8 Common Gulls. Forty five Black-headed Gulls flew west passed the island. Waders today were 90 Turnstone, 25 Dunlin, 25 Sanderling and 9 Purple Sandpiper.
