Newport Estuary & Iron Bridge.

 Spoonbill was half way down the estuary when I spotted it, but soon spooked by walkers on the far bank path. American Wigeon (1), in with others seen briefly before moving down stream. Above iron bridge, the three Tundra Bean Geese were resting on the left side up toward the main river flow. Seven Redshank seen in total. Managed to get onto the Spoonbill a second time as it returned to the lower estuary later.
