22nd January 2010

A record number of 157 Brent Geese was realised today when a complete count was possible, the blue and red colour ringed bird, which was originally ringed in Canada, was amongst them.
Four duck species were present: two groups of 4 Teal, 2 and 8 Wigeon, also a single male Pintail and female or immature Goldeneye. Two Lapwings were typical winter wanderers.
