Beach Reserve

A fine morning and plenty of bird activity to see, Lapwing, Redshank, Ringed Plover and Oystercatcher were displaying on Flat Beach, the shingle ridges of the Beach Reserve and the pools on Harbour Farm.  Ternery pool attracted 17 Mediterranean Gull and at least 500 Black-headed Gull. Good numbers of Knot, Dunlin and Sanderling were again feeding along the shore.  Yesterday the ridges near Crittall Hide at Ternery Pool held 150 Golden Plover, 10 Ruff, 100 Oystercatcher and 300 Lapwing.
