Heading North from the car park, a total of 16 Kestrels in the air, carrying on North to the sluice a further 8 were observed, numbers double checked on the return walk and tallied again as 2 different flocks.
Plus 1 Wheatear

I can also confirm a good count of 24 Kestrels today with 16 over the outmarsh at Stonebridge, 3 towards the RAF look-out tower and 5 closer to Pye's Hall. There were 4 Wheatears and 2 Whinchats along the chestnut paling fence by the beach just before Pye's Hall at ca. 1030. 6 Greenshanks were in Somercotes Haven and there was a Cuckoo at Stonebridge.
