Quiet down at the estuary this afternoon - a Red-breasted Merganser and 4 Wheatear the highlights.
From the river viewpoint this evening, a pair of Tufted Ducks, 1 Wigeon, 3 Teal and 3 Goosander.
What was most surprising though was the complete absence of hirundines. After several evenings of over 500 birds, mostly Sand Martins, over the marsh it was strangely silent. The Wagtails seemed to have moved on too.
