20th to 23rd January

Little change the last few days, but perhaps some rougher weather forecast for next week will shake things up a bit. The Glaucaus Gull was still at Kirbest on 20th while an unseasonal Lesser black-backed Gull was at Bridesness on 21st. A Tundra Bean Goose near the school on 22nd may well have been last week's bird and the Green-winged Teal was noted on Gretchen Locha again on 23rd. The best of the rest were 3 Linnets with the Chaffinch at the Observatory and a Woodcock on 21st, with the 7 Barnacle Geese, 2 Pink-footed Geese and a Shelduck present throughout.
