Heysham Obs
Unfortunately not able to check the sea until just after high tide but there didnt seem to be anything new around following yesterdays storm
Little Gull: 19 adult and a 1st W feeding in the breaking waves between the wooden jetty and just south of Ocean Edge. None seen from the north side of the harbour
Shag: 2 by the waterfall and 13 sat on the harbour wall by the sandplant. Two Cormorants feeding in the waterfall area just after high tide were catching a small fish every 8 seconds or so.
Kittiwake: 21 sat on the edge of the south quay and a further c9 around the outfalls
Med Gull: Just the 1st W
Twite: 4 on the mound.
Elsewhere
Good collection on the Lune/Conder estuary but nothing new: 8 Little Egret, 2 Greenshank, 3 Spotted Redshank, Whooper Swan....... plus 6 Bewicks Swans on Jeremy Lane. The Lune valley Whooper Swan flock (8 birds) was with a handful of Mute Swans about two fields to the south-west of Gressingham road bridge (at least 1000hrs)
