Last Sunday's count produced another two Cattle Egrets, both adults on Flow Point, with six recorded at Passage House in the evening. A tern first seen briefly east of Passage House was initially identified as an Arctic Tern, before prolonged flight views around Coombe Cellars confirmed it as a first-winter Common Tern, with a second bird also present at Flow Point. Other totals included 290 Oystercatchers, 50+ Curlews, 34 Turnstones, 20+ Redshanks, 19 Dunlins, three Bar-tailed Godwits, three Common Sandpipers, 41 Little Egrets, 37 Mallards, 17 Mute Swans, three Little Grebes and three Kingfishers.
