A generally quiet few days with most of the excitement surrounding the ever
increasing egret numbers at the flash. Just how many can the flash hold? Why
have they suddenly exploded like this?
All week there have been at least six great white and now we have at least 20
little egrets. Before this year I'd never seen more than one great white and
six was my record count of little. Little egrets already breed at the flash,
how long before great white joins them?
Winter duck numbers continue to grow, with 16 goldeneye on Saturday and 19
goosander. Peak count of pochard so far is four birds on Saturday, whilst
tufted ducks are around 250.
