Grey Plover occur during winter in varying numbers, with very few recorded on autumn passage. It seems that if the Stag Rocks is chosen as a wintering area the birds stay all winter. This species is much more numerous at the nearby Budle Bay (counts of 700 not unusual) and on the mudflats at Lindisfarne as they generally prefer muddier sediments.
