A later afternoon visit turned out to be well worth while with the highlight being a drake Pochard, just the second record of the year. Also today, four Shoveler and a Tufted Duck alongside seven Teal and at least fifty Wigeon. The Egyptian Goose was still knocking around, it was on the lawn at the Sailing Club today.
As the light started to fade lots of gulls dropped in, with a constant stream during the half an hour I was on site. A very rough count yielded 1200 Black-headed Gull and 600 Herring Gull.
