Too flat and grey to warrant an outing today so just a brief 'non-birding' stroll around Southsea Castle where eight Purple Sandpipers were roosting well up the wall, a Shag(120) successfully fishing not too far out and a single Rock Pipit.
Just east of the pier and just offshore were four redhead Goosanders from the car; worth stopping for and getting a better look - possibly my first ever from Portsea Island. At the Coffee Cup just two Pied Wagtails foraging around the outside tables and a good mass of Brent adjacent to the Pitch and Putt.
