Sea and shore 1840-2030

There were quite good numbers of willow warblers (16) around Mill Hill this evening - hawking insects off the Hawthorns. It would hae been good to check out more of the dunes but there was too much activity on and over the beach to ignore. Gulls and terns were flying into roost.

Herring Gull c 2500
GBB Gull c750
LBB Gull 76
Common Gull c500
Med Gull 9 adults ( a Gib record count)
Sandwich tern 2,500
Common Tern 92
Arctic skua 31 mostly south

Also a garganey new in on the Mere.
