Osprey Climping Beach - 04/09/2026

07 January, 2016

At least 7 Little Gull on and around the golf course this morning, probably a few more in the area.   47 Grey Plover roosting in the fields west of the course, also 1 Kingfisher, 1w Med Gull and 3w Red-breasted Merganser. With the golf course currently closed the course is turning into a roost so hopefully something else will drop in soon. Visitors are reminded that there is no public access to the course, access from the footpath that runs behind which is very muddy.
