GORING GAP: A
Golden Plover which dropped into the central fields was the first main highlight, followed by a surprise
Black-necked Grebe on the sea (later twitched by Garry and Clive) and 17
Lapwings overhead. The sea was quiet otherwise, with just a lone
Great Crested Grebe. The beach held four
Grey Plovers and reasonable but uncounted numbers of
Dunlin,
Ringed Plovers and
Turnstones, plus a couple of
Oystercatchers. A
Grey Wagtail, four
Mediterranean Gulls, nine
Skylarks, nine
Goldcrests, two
Pied Wagtails and five
Meadow Pipits were among the other species logged.
