Wintersett Res: The redhead Red-breasted Merganser was off the east bank until 11.00hrs when it was flushed by boats. It relocated to the northern end of Anglers CP. Cetti's Warbler 1 male north bank. Great Crested Grebe 23 + 9 ACP + 1 CHRes.. Water Rail 2 in the boathouse reedbed.
Anglers CP: Shoveler 3, Teal 5 and Siskin 8.
Gull Roosts: Psycho the adult Yellow-legged Gull flew in, calling loudly - ACP. The combined totals from both roosts:- Great Black-backed Gull 417, Lesser Black-backed Gull 6, and a crazy number of 3070 Herring Gull considering how mild it is. This number is not usually seen until mid winter! Also a juv Kumliens? type was seen on WRes but better views are needed to confirm.
