A Greenshank, several Rock Pipits and a Water Pipit were the highlights of the day, seen at Thornham Harbour this morning. There was also a flyover of 150 Golden Plover, and 350 Lapwing were flying around the salt marsh and grazing marsh. Around the Obs it has been quite quiet, with the highlights being a few Siskins and a pair of Crossbills in the pines again. There are still large numbers of Teal on the Broadwater, along with many Mallards and a few Shoveler and Tufted Ducks.
