4th - 5th March

On the 4th, the first Goldcrest of the year was at Holland House, 256 Skylarks were counted during the day and a Peregrine was another new migrant. Single lingering Glaucous and Iceland Gulls were still around, and the goose flocks contained a Pink-footed Goose and at least 63 White-fronted Geese, including the usual Greenland bird. The 5th was a pleasant day, but there was little to report besides a Pied Wagtail and reasonable counts of 20 Red-throated Divers and 6 Great Northern Divers seen offshore.
