The Starlings are beginning to gather at CBWR with perhaps maximum of c.1500-2000 birds, most of whom are going down at about 4.15pm. Yesterday there were c.130 Tufted Duck and c.25 Teal in the reserve. An ad.Med Gull was on The Marl playing fields. Today at the barrage there was no sign of the Black Redstart. A Curlew was in the outer harbour and 10 Common Gulls on the orange buoys.
