Blue Tits
Common Gulls viz.

Coots viz.

Cormorants
Egyptian Geese viz.

Gadwalls
a Great Black-Backed Gull

Red Dead-Nettle and some sorry-looking Sow-Thistles.

We also saw one of the new Woolwich Free Ferries (the Dame Vera Lynn) on manoeuvres viz.

The new Ferries were initially expected to be operational during December-2018: due to technical difficulties we understand they will not become operational until some time during February-2019, at the earliest.

Also, Bulker, IDC Pearl, moored in the Thames at Thames Refinery Outer viz.
