"Tagging along with Trevor today, but all my recording was done from the car (being unable to walk!). In no particular order…

Par Beach Pool: Great Black Backed Gull 1, Lesser Black Backed Gull 1, Black Headed Gull 12 (1 of which was very juv.), Moorhen 8, Coot 7, Greenfinch 5, Canada Goose c70, Dunnock 2, Mute Swan 21 (this includes 5 juv; 3 & 2 and all doing well), Grey Heron 2, Cormorant 2, Blackbird 2, Mallard c75, Herring Gull c150, Pied Wagtail 6, Carrion Crow 4, Goldfinch 4, Bullfinch 1 M, Wren 1, Songthrush 1, Swallows 4, Starling 2, Chaffinch 3, Linnet 3, Chiffchaff 1, Jackdaw 3, House Sparrow 3.

From the top car park: Stonechat 2, Greenfinch 4, Woodpigeon 2, Swallow 6, Blackbird 2, Shag 3, Cormorant 2, Oystercatcher (heard only – the grass on the dunes is too high for me to see over in places!), House Martin 8, Goldfinch 4, Great Black Backed Gull 1, Chaffinch 2, Black Headed Gull 6, Linnet 2, Herring Gulls: lots as usual!

Car park near The Ship end: Willow Warbler 2, Swallow 3, Buzzard 1, Robin 1, Goldfinch 2, Chiffchaff 1, Skylark 2, Jay 1, Carrion Crow 3, Moorhen 1.

Menabilly: Chiffchaff 1, Buzzard 1, Wren 1, Skylark 3, Jackdaw c110 (although I did ID Rook 2 amongst them), Songthrush 1, Blackbird 3, Swallow 12, Pheasant 2, Dunnock 3, Linnet 8, Herring Gull 4.

NO SWIFTS recorded, although there are lots over my house so I obviously wasn’t looking properly!!!

Oh, and for Roger from Menabilly: 1 Large White Butterfly and a small pretty Moth in the Churchyard, which I could not ID!

Pics of young Pied Wagtail and Black Headed Gull attached."

Thanks for the report Angie.

Very little I can add to that...while you were scoping I had a quick look at the River and the shoreline.
One extra Grey Heron fishing on the River.
8 x Oystercatchers...5 on the shoreline and 3 at the harbour rocks.
C x 35 Black-headed Gulls on the shoreline.
