A Great-northern Diver flew in off fairly high heading inland over Dovercourt & Harwich to presumably drop in on the River Stour for some crabbing having been out to sea to fish. Offshore heading south 35 Golden Plover, 25 Teal, 6 Red-throated Diver & north bound 7 Red-throated Diver & 7 Brent. On the reserve 4 Snow Bunting, Mistle Thrush plus a Linnet flying south. Little Owls are very vocal at the moment as pair bonds & territories are set up.
Ringing: 1 Chaffinch
