Visit today to Frampton produced: Brent Geese - too many to count Pintail 4, including 1 drake Scaup 1 female Pochard, Tufted, Mallard, Gadwall, Wigeon, Shelduck and Teal L Egret - only 1 today! The only raptor we saw was a Kestrel A decent selection of waders: Blackwits, Redshank, Golden and Grey Plover, Lapwing, Dunlin, Snipe. Lapland Bunting 4 flew over but didn't put down.
Called in at Kirkby Pits on the way home: Teal - 450 is an estimate Tufted, Gadwall, Pochard, Shoveler and Mallard Avocet 1 still present Ring-necked Duck still present but at the far end of Riverslea Pit and difficult to see well.
