The Arctic Warbler near Stonebridge showed very well through the day, but the Radde's Warbler which was found further along the dunes in the afternoon was a much more skulking affair. 2 Yellow-browed Warblers were also seen, but other grounded migrants were few, hence 2 Goldcrests, 5 Robins, 2 Song Thrushes, Wheatear and Brambling. Some Twite were heard and 6 Long-tailed Tits seen. Highlights of the Stonebridge to Pye's Hall WeBS count were 82 Curlews, 41 Redshanks, Greenshank, 720 Golden Plovers, 9 Bar-tailed Godwits, 630 Oystercatchers, Jack Snipe, 820 Brent Geese, one pale-bellied Brent Goose, 690 Pink-footed Geese which flew south in 9 skeins, 286 Shelducks, 800 Teal, Shoveler, 17 Little Egrets, 2 Sparrowhawks and a Marsh Harrier.
