4th February 2012

Highlight of a bitterly cold day, that saw rain freezing in to sheets of ice as it fell, was a flock of 13 Lapwings flying west towards Wales over Middle. Single Shag and Rock Pipit and 14 Purple Sandpipers were more expected but a count of over 20 Sanderlings as the tide flooded was a good count.

The elusive Rabbit put in a brief appearance whilst a Peregrine was watched hunting down the west side on several occasions from the warmths of the Obs.
