NWT Holme Dunes

   A short seawatch (0830-0855hrs) produced little movement with six wigeon and a shelduck west the only migrants.

   Also off shore close in were 12 red-breasted merganser west, along with a fulmar and a red-throated diver also west.

   On the beach at Gore Point was a striking "northern" herring gull, not only the same grey as a common gull, but with striking deep pink legs. Elsewhere the shorelarks remained on Thornham Beach, and in the harbour 26 twite and a flock of 25 linnet close by.
