BLACK-TAILED GODWIT Limosa limosa (W) F The max site count was 83 Skinflats 17 November; the whole estuary WEBS count in January found 75, which suggests that the higher totals of Kinneil +Skinflats in early January and, possibly, early October were due to double counting of birds that moved between the two sites. Numbers decreased in late May and there were few until early September. The only records from other sites were single birds at Cambus Pools, Tullibody Inch and Blackdevonmouth June to September.
