Today's only 'new' news came from the Bill where a passing
Long-tailed Duck was the highlight; 6
Red-throated Divers, 4
Brent Geese and a
Great Skua also passed by and at least 50
Common Scoter were still offshore. The
Grey Heron was again wandering around the south of the island, 400
Mediterranean Gulls were at Ferrybridge and the usual selection of divers and seaduck were in Portland Harbour.
Local social media has been featuring lots of photographs of this Grey Heron that's been visiting garden ponds all over the centre and south of the island in recent weeks; this evening it was settled on a roof at the Coastguard Cottages © Martin Cade:
