    90% frozen Moors Pool today, the open part was just by the islands so lots of early birds fairly close. Plenty of Pochard and Tufted plus a single Wigeon which left early on.

    To add to Gerts list we had 1 Green Sand at the Flashes and 2 Oyks, 4 Oyks on the Moors but unsure if they were some of the same birds. Also there was a report of a Goosander but we didn't see it. Sparrowhawk and Kestrel also on Moors. Also a very tame Water Rail in the channel on the causeway.
