ADUR ESTUARY: at high tide Greenshank, 41 Redshank, Curlew, 2 Snipe, 26 Lapwing, 17 Teal
FERRING: Flat calm sea and high tide prompted me to scan for birds on it this morning between 0900 and 0930. I counted 76 Great-crested Grebes, 38 Red-breasted Mergansers, 11 Razorbills and 4 Cormorants. The bulk of the birds were at the western end towards Kingston. A single Common Scoter and c.10 distant Auks flew W.
LADYWELL: A nice selection today, the birds trapped and ringed are detailed in the table below. A Lesser Redpoll was also noted.
SOMPTING: Male Black Redstart at Lychpole Farm
Black Redstart (Zoe Williams)
WIDEWATER: The Black Redstart was still around and 4 Dolphins were seen moving west very distant
