Monday 6th Feb

A single Ring-necked Parakeet over the car park at 13:30, may have been the first so far this February? It certainly marked 80 species for the month, in just 6 days!
Just 1/3rd of Lea Farm GP is unfrozen, c100 Wigeon, 50+ Teal and a few Shoveler, no Lapwings, or gulls, up to 15 Snipe reported earlier, 8 joined by another 7. 4+ Goldeneye still on BSL, probably more, Wigeon and Gadwall count might be 200 of each, virtually all the Pochard are on BSL. Pretty quiet though and a bit misty, continuing to thaw - 3 degrees.
