Sun 9th Feb 25

I had a wander to French Point late morning, a Med Gull was on the sluice rocks with a single Turnstone in the mixed gull flock.c700 Brent Geese were sitting on the sea close inshore and making a fantastic noise before lifting off a returning to the arable towards Lt. Clacton. 

From French Point, 27 Cormorant and 1 Shelduck headed south and a Barn Owl sat in the back hedge. From the pillbox, lots of Wigeon & Teal, c20 Shoveler, 6 Shelduck, c60 Lapwing, 24 Curlew, 2 Buzzard 1 Kestrel and a Muntjac. Plus an Oystercatcher was on the greensward as I drove out.
