Overnight spells of light rain continued throughout the early hours of the morning and into the early afternoon and with a south-easterly breeze, a small scattering of migrants were evident in-and-around the observatory.
Migrants included 5 Lesser Whitethroat, 3 Common Whitethroat, 3 Blackcap, 6 Chiffchaff, 6 Siskin, 6 Wheatear, 4 Swallow, 1 Yellow Wagtail, 14 Common Tern and 1 Sandwich Tern.
Can we hope for more migrants tomorrow morning with this south westerly breeze?
Silver Y was first of the year.
Ringing: 9 birds ringed during the day including 6 Chiffchaff, 2 Lesser Whitethroat and 1 Blackcap.
