This a.m. fantastic weather. Large numbers(into the hundreds for some) of Shellduck, Wigeon, Pochard, Teal, Pintail, Curlew, Skylark, Black Tailed Godwit, Redshank, Shoveller. My first ever American Teal with a perfect set of vertical white stripes just in front of the hide. Also single Little Egret and a single Avocet returned on the 9th(although I could not find it). Cheers Ian
