Angle Bay....

Only had an hour before dusk this alvo, but walked away from Angle village on tarmac drive towards Kilpaison on coastal path. 2 Barwit were roosting with Curlew, Oystercatchers and c 20 Dunlin, on part of creek closest to village. Single female Common Scoter & GND added a little interest to the 6 Great Crested Grebe on the sea. Late Greenshank was nice & contrasted by several roosting groups of Redwing joining half a dozen Fieldfare that had settled noisily into woodland edge. All rounded off by several distinct Starling murmur actions over Fort Popton & land above Angle village as dusk set in.
