Glorious winters start to the day although the Cormorants can go out when its barely light with a bright moon and sometimes sneak out low along the river. Early risers can see Sanderling on the beach with 7 this morning but they don't stay long after the first punters get out there - are they feeding at night in the small hours when very few dog walkers on the beach? On the point 2 Purps & Turnstone present & accounted for.
