Wintersett + Gull Roosts 31.01.16

4 degrees with 8/8 cloud,  fine rain and a light south westerly  this morning.  Westerly breeze this afternoon.
Anglers CP: Shoveler 1 male and  Green Woodpecker 2.
Wintersett Res: A Cetti's Warbler was seen and heard on the NW bank.
Both Gull Roosts were a shambles today.  Observers spent a frustrating time with dreads from start to finish.  Initially the birds on WRes were flushed by a helicopter ,  but there was no obvious reason for the disturbances on Anglers CP.  The only notable was Psycho, the adult Yellow-legged Gull on the small raft ACP at 16.45hrs.
