Sometimes I don't do a species list for this walk, as it's intended to be a slower-paced walk, spending time learning about bird identification and birds in general. But we had such a nice run of birds today that I thought a full list would be of interest! The beach remains busy with breeding activity and the female Gadwall still has a full complement of youngsters.
