A walk down the Gann from Mullock Bridge to the pools turned up 30 Curlew, c. 120 Herring Gulls and maybe 10 Greaters with a few Black Headed Gull, 10 Cormorants, 28 Oystercatcher, 7 Redshank, 5 Little Egrets and 2 Cattle Egrets again in the Mullock fields.
The best was 9 Whooper Swan on the river above the gulls that were and disturbed by walkers flew out to sea off Black Rock, landed and then paddled back towards the river.
About 180 Golden Plover very high up in the sky over the Gann heading north west. hundreds of corvids, pigeons and some starlings too on the newly gathered maize crops fields.
Want to see something fairly spectacular? Then head for Dale village before dusk - the corvid roost is well worth seeing with many hundreds of corvids going to roost.
