Barling Tip.

Decided to have a look at Barling Tip today, quite a few Gulls present with a 1st winter Caspian Gull in the melle briefly being the highlight. Viewing of the tip is a little distant but ok at 30x and is a similar kind of viewing /set up to that of Rainham. I viewed from the seawall with the inter-tidal creek behind me. Gulls also get on to the creek. Also present today 60+ Redshank & 1 Oystercatcher in the creek with Greensandpiper seen flying between pools nearby. Photo above shows the tip face from the seawall and photo below shows the creek from the start of the walk to the tip along the seawall.
