Things were much the same as of late this morning with the exception of a pair of Shag on the sluice rocks, one of which was colour ringed. It looks like more birds from the Isle of May, more info to follow shortly hopefully.

From the pillbox: c200 Greylags (+3 hybrids), 15 Canada Geese, 5 White-fronted Geese, c150 Teal, 15 Wigeon, 4 Mallard, 2 Shoveler, 2 Avocet on the scrape, c30 Brent (on arable), c 100 Wigeon (sitting offshore), 1 Buzzard, 1 Kestrel. RJ/MR

A very poor year at the Haven with the year list totalling just 176 species
