Popped out for a bit of fresh air at Fairhaven. Not much of interest on the estuary at high tide - just single Arctic Tern, Sandwich Tern, a few hundred Oystercatchers, 50+ Curlew and the usual Herring and Black-headed Gulls to sift through.

Made my way back to the car past the lake and spotted this escaped Cackling Canada Goose in with the Greater Canadas. Dwarfed by its cousins and easy to spot, it would look far more interesting in a local Pink-footed Geese flock in the winter.
