March 4th

On a misty, murky morning with the tide out and the Environment Agency repairing the winter damage to the beach I walked along the seawall. I saw 5 Greylag Geese, 1 Kestrel, 12 Linnets, 480 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 3 Great Black-backed Gulls, 5 Cetti's Warblers, 1 Pied Wagtail, 4 Stonechats, 6 Redshank, 11 Cormorants, 10 Ringed Plovers, 2 Oystercatchers, 12 Meadow Pipits, 19 Turnstone and 2 Mallard.
