Brent Geese and others blown in again today.

Still grim up north (or east) but the birds keep coming. Today less Little Auks went through but still over 50 at Whiting Ness where 11 Brent Geese were feeding on the park. They were still there at dusk. Also seen at the Ness, a Great Northern Diver (wrongly thought to be a Black-throated earlier), a Little Gull, a few Kittiwakes and Purple Sandpipers.
