In
North Bay the Black Redstart was seen again on the rocks opposite Hairy Bob’s
Skate Park and there was a Red-throated Diver on the sea. Near the Harbour,
behind the Tea Pot Café, there were 2 Red-throated Divers and a Guillemot.
A
wader count at Jackson’s Bay produced 69 Oystercatchers, 27 Redshanks and 23
Turnstones and a count of Wigeon flock in North Bay produced 266 birds.
Elsewhere,
at Burton Riggs there were a Pochard, a Gadwall and a Great-crested Grebe, at
