| SPECIES TOTAL | NAME | FURTHER DETAILS |
| 123 | Ian McKerchar | Birding here very regularly since it's 'discovery' only afew years ago, there are undoubtedly much more species to come. No real blockers as such since it's very early days for the site but some of the best are the 3 Littles (Stint, Gull and Grebe), Arctic Tern, Kingfisher, Hen Harrier, Tawny Owl , Mediterranean Gull, Iceland Gull, Cormorant, Whooper Swan, Rock Pipit and 22 species of wader in total so far (including Little Stint and Curlew Sandpiper), my biggest omission however is very unlikely to ever reoccur as I was out of the country for the Bufflehead that graced the pools with it's presence. |
| 96 | Andy Isherwood | As another of the sites few regular observers, Andy's list includes such blockers as Marsh Harrier, Black-tailed Godwit and Mediterranean Gull. |
