2,347 Cormorants heading out to go fishing early morning is the first time a count over 2,000 has been achieved - surely this is all of them and there can't be any more ? With 2,300 in one extended mass flock it is an impressive sight. Common Gull got into three figures for the first time this winter with 102 counted and at least 26 Kittiwake also logged. Apart from the above southbound went 13 Red-throated Diver, 11 Brent Geese & a Great-crested Grebe with northbound 28 Red-throats & 3 Common Scoter.
