The strong south-westerly winds again proved little use to passerine migration,and sea watching fared little better. Very little to report on site apart from 2 Sparrowhawk, 28 Common Swift south and a juvenile White Wagtail feeding on the common with 15 Pied Wagtail, whilst offshore only the odd wader and duck species going past, the best being 1 Ruff and 36 Oyster Catcher both south.

Only 3 birds were ringed today, 1 each of Lesser Whitethroat, Dunnock and Sparrowhawk.
