NWT Holme Dunes
At least 200 pink-footed geese were arriving from the north-west this morning and the most obvious migrants today.
The sea was watched for about half hour and produced the following: nine red-breasted mergansers west, two gannets west, two fulmar west, auk spp west, guillemot east and four kittiwakes west. The scoter were very unsettled the reason being two marauding bonxies.
On the grazing marshes there were 1100 pink-feet, 300 teal, 200 wigeon, 3 marsh harriers, 190 lapwing, 89 curlew and 2 barn owls. The shorelarks remained on the beach at Thornham.
