Glorious sunny frosty morning with both stunning male Bullfinch & Black Redstart unexpectedly turning up at the observatory. Other migrants noted were 2 Snipe, Fieldfare, couple of new Chaffinch plus 2 Skylark heading south. 2 Ringed Plovers flying north along the beach could possibly be returning locals checking the place is still here in preparation for next spring. The Rock Pipit was along the tideline & the Snow Bunting was heard calling so is lurking somewhere along the beach.
