British Rail Announcement

 
A minimum of three water rails continue to entertain down by the hedgerow ditch on the lower path.

The redhead smew is still on Freeman's Pools, along with small numbers of other ducks including gadwall, goosander and goldeneye.

Two green sandpipers and two black-tailed godwits were on 'the flood'.

A hundred-strong wigeon flock by Cadaver Corner did not harbour the rather elusive Cockersands/Conder am wig drake. 

Circa 900 pink-footed geese flew high North over the estuary area early afternoon (descending near the Heysham bypass), and a rather bold grey wagtail was feeding on the sewage works track.

Dan.
