The weather consisted of strong south-westerly winds, overcast skies with a belt of relatively light rain passing through and temperatures that reached nine degrees C late morning, before dropping away. Five Pink-footed Geese and the Russian White-fronted Goose again frequented fields near Micklemires, whilst 34 Wigeon were near North Marsh. A total of 62 Purple Sandpipers around the Fog Station represented the winter’s highest count.
