The Lincolnshire Bird Club

Seawatching for two hours from high tide onwards this morning was better than yesterday both in terms of birds and visibility. Most birds were passing south and although I couldn't match the Theddlethorpe count, 540 Common Scoters was still a good total. Also seen were 10 Gannets, 56 Sandwich Terns, 4 Common Terns, 3 Arctic Terns, one Little Tern and 2 Little Gulls. Waders were 29 Dunlin, 81 Sanderlings, 47 Curlews, one Bar-tailed Godwit, 22 Knot and one Turnstone. A Peregrine also flew south along the tide-line.
