Imperial Road, Heysham (7.45 – 8.15 am)
4 adult Mediterranean Gull among a large mixed gull flock – mainly adult Herring Gull, with smaller numbers of Black-headed, Common and Lesser Black-backed Gulls – in the fields east of Imperial Road
6 Fieldfare and 5 Redwing flew south

Heysham Nature Reserve (8.20 – 9.15 am)
c.110 Redwing – small numbers (a total of 10) were seen around the reserve with others heard high overhead, then a completely silent flock of c.100 ‘leaf fell’ into the trees around the Tank Farm at 9.10 am, but flew off south almost immediately. They were almost certainly brought down by the tape of Redwing & Chiffchaff calls being played by John Mason while mist-neeting behind the Nature Reserve hut.
2 Fieldfare flew south
c.90 Pink-footed Geese flew north
1 Sparrowhawk by the Dipping Pond
1 Chiffchaff calling near the Dipping Pond

Heysham Nature Park – Ocean Edge (9.20 – 10.20 am)
c.50 Redwing flew south at 9.25 am
1 adult Mediterranean Gull – with white left leg darvic, but too distant to read – at Red Nab
No grounded migrants along the Ocean Edge foreshore.
