Plymouth Area

Finally got my computer working again.
This morning on the Plym; no sign of the recent Goldeneye but the pair of Gadwall are still there, joined by a pair of Shoveler. Two Snipe, four Greenshank and a Common Sandpiper were also here.

A Great Northern Diver was on the Cattewater below Laira Bridge but I couldn't find the female Eider.

A male Brambling has been in my garden for the fifth day today.

Yesterday on the Tamar estuary from Ernesettle I had a good count of one hundred and eleven Teal, plus sixty five Wigeon, thirty three Black tailed Godwit and a Kingfisher. The most unexpected birds here were flock of six Coot.
Finally a Black Redstart was in Ford Park Cemetary. (Graham Bools).
