4 Pinkfeet with the Greylags still, 13 Gadwall, 144 Teal, 8 Tufteds, drake Goldeneye, drake Goosander, Water Rail, 198 Lapwings, 2 Redpolls. A walk behind the dam produced the expected Tree Sparrow on the feeders, though just one, with a singing Dipper on the river. The gull roost was busy, often the case on Sundays, producing the first ‘white-winger’ of the winter in the form of a second-winter Iceland Gull. Previous reports of an adult Glaucous now confirmed as a subtle hybrid.
