WeBS totals

A lone Brent Goose at Flow Point was the best bird of this morning's WeBS, only the second patch record of the year following three at Teignmouth way back on New Year's Day.


Other counts included 327 Oystercatchers, 94 Curlew, 43 Redshanks, 6 Black-tailed Godwits, 15 Red-breasted Mergansers (good to see them back), 3 Common Sandpipers, 2 Little Grebes and singles of Great Crested Grebe, Snipe and Kingfisher.

Late news for yesterday: the male Scaup remains at Decoy Lake, now sporting its usual bottle-green head plumage, and a Black Redstart was reported from Teignmouth.
