The first hatched Ringed Plover chicks of 2017 on Landguard have now started flying and have been seen airborne between the shoreline and shingle areas at the point.
Passage noted this morning, over the reserve going South 6 Swift, 2 Jackdaw and going South offshore 14 Little Tern, 2 Common Tern, 2 Grey Plover and 1 Fulmar, going North offshore 3 Med Gull and 2 Greylag Geese.
Moth numbers are suppressed due to the weather currently but doesn't stop the odd Dark Sword Grass turning up.
