I mentioned yesterday that there is always a Starling presence on the skear, today their presence was unmissable.

Waders pretty much as yesterday. There were 1000 Knot this morning and still 700 this afternoon, no Peregrine disturbance seen while I was there.
 |
| A few flagged Knot were read, but this terrain is tricky. This is one of the better areas, but not many of these have their legs on view. One flag can be read though. MAP ringed Merseyside 2024 |
 |
| This one is a bit easier to see in a brief bit of morning sunshine. Ringed at the Wadden Sea Netherlands 2019. Seen in Iceland 2024 |

| Knot, Turnstone, Oystercatcher and Redshank |
