      Some nice big pools in the fields held:
      104 Wigeon
      73 Teal
      5 Pintail
      14 Mallard
      3 Mute Swan (plus 17 more in nearby fields)
      40 Lapwing flew S towards the moor
      4 Fieldfare flew N

      By the river :
      667 Oystercatcher
      45 Curlew
      1 Little Egret
      1 Shelduck
      4+ Greylag

      The Snab is a shadow of its former self, half of it having been drained, so the only birds on it were a Little Egret and 2 Shelduck

      90 Rooks and 80 Jackdaws gathered in the fields at 5pm before flying Towards Claughton
