Back to glorious
conditions with plenty of sunshine and a light westerly breeze; walked from the
Obs round to Brides from lunchtime but there wasn’t too much different to
mention with the Kumlien’s Gull showing a bit better
feeding in the surf with Common Gulls while ducks on Brides included 7 Pintail,
10 Gadwall, 38 Mallard, 110 Teal, 2 Goldeneye and 2 Red-breasted
Mergansers. The Green-winged Teal was still on Gretchen.
Opened the nets at Holland for the first time this
year, flushing the first Woodcock of the year in
the process, where I managed to catch an excellent 19 new birds (especially
good for February!) as there were increased numbers of Thrushes around the
garden including 60 Redwings, 25 Fieldfares and 20 Blackbirds.
Even better pictures of the Kumlien's Gull!
