13 Barnacle Geese north over the obs are the first of the "spring" although in this biting north-easterly wind it's difficult to conceive this as spring. 3 fine drake Eider went north just off the beach with other sightings limited to south bound 25 Red-throated Diver plus north bound 13 Brent, 2 Red-throated Diver & Common Scoter. Started getting the years moth list under way by looking at the leaf mines on the Holm Oaks with Ectodemia heringella, Phyllonorycter messaniella & Stigmella suberivora noted so far. E.heringella was only first noted in England in 2002 but now some of the Holm Oaks are covered in them.
