Mid afternoon, low water, so few waders on the marshes. Also large female peregrine sat in the middle of the marshes may have been partly responsible. A few hundred wigeon still and about 120 teal spread out over all the wet pools and flashes together with 6 tufted ducks, 17 shoveller, 8 mallard, 6 shelduck and at least 8 pintail. To the west of the lagoon the 8
white-fronted geese were with a large flock of Canada geese and a single
spoonbill.
