Cold Edge and Fly Flats

 Another check of the goose flock at Cold Edge this afternoon. The site lived up to its name !

102 Canada Geese,nothing new with them. Also 22 Lapwing, 50+ Jackdaws, 2 Kestrel, 2 Blackbirds , 1 Song Thrush and a Starling. Very few smaller gulls this afternoon, there are usually a good number.

It was worth a trip up to Fly Flats with 5 Oystercatchers, on the edge of the shore including a pair in copulation. 3 Mallard and 2 Carrion Crows were the only other hardy birds there apart from 4 pairs of Canadas hidden away in the tall grasses !
