Notes

Mouth observation whether open/perched or closed depended on the tidal influence. The sea at the time of observation was entering over a wide sand built up area with no exchange of darker water from the estuary, green water was returning & could be seen in front of rocks. Very large amount of sand could be seen in breakers out to sea where the waves  were over 3m. high.
