I had a quick walk over to Hilbre Island this morning with my two sons, the
first time all three of us have been over together for a good few years.
Highlight for me was the sight of two ravens playing on the wind at Middle
Eye.
I didn't do a full count of the brent geese, but there were at least 300
pale-bellied birds as well as two dark-bellied.

At the north end there were at least six purple sandpipers and on the sea a
beautiful drake red-breasted merganser.
