16th February 2015

A moderate southerly wind, overcast and temperatures of 4 degrees C. The seawatch was very quiet, whilst the freshwater pools attracted 11 Wigeon, 14 Teal and a pair of Shoveler; the latter at Thornwick. A Barn Owl hunted in the same area, whilst three Mistle Thrushes were at Hartendale.
