Superb big flock of wildfowl still present with 280teal, 35 mallard, 125 wigeon, 10 shoveler and a single shelduck. 65 lapwing and 2 redshank were the only waders. Memorable close views of a female hen harrier , at one time she was right below the hide before flying around to the Covert Coch peat bog. 2 red kites and a single buzzard over the grazing marsh.
5 redpolls and a single woodcock on the walk down.
