December 10th

With a strong NW wind blowing we spent an hour at Reculver this morning but there was not much to be seen. We counted 339 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 840 Cormorants, 2 Common Scoter, 10 Great Black-backed Gulls W and 150 Herring Gulls W.

Recently we have had the ringing data of a colour-ringed Redshank Terry Wilson saw at Minnis Bay on December 5th. It had been ringed at Harty on November 2nd by the Swale Wader Group.
