We saw 2 Pied Wagtails, 6 Cormorants, 4 Goldfinches, 2 Mediterranean Gulls, 4 Little Egrets, 1 Hobby, 2 Linnets, 1 Grey Heron, 2 Redshank, 8 Oystercatchers, 11 Turnstone, 1 Whitethroat, 6 Ringed Plovers, 1 Sandwich Tern,1 Common Scoter, 1 Marsh Harrier, 8 Shelduck, 1 Curlew, 11 Tufted Ducks, 4 Little Grebes and 1 Turtle Dove.
Barry Hunt had an hour and a half at Minnis Bay before the rain set in. He saw 9 Mediterranean Gulls, 3 adults, 5 first summer and 1 juvenile, also a single Black-tailed Godwit W along with 1 Golden Plover, 1 Greenshank and 3 Whimbrel also all flying W. The rain eventually stopped play!
