2,870 Cormorants came out on mass low down the river at 0735 hrs which is a bit more amiable of them than the last few days coming out before daylight. Otherwise hard work with southbound 12 Shelduck, 8 Siskin, 7 Teal, 6 Brent, 3 Common Gull, 2 Goldfinch & Red-throated Diver. Shag was in the river again early on.
