At least 5 Songies on site and 4 Mipit but no other sign of migration. Greeny numbers have increased to the dizzy heights of 15 - sadly this is notable for recent winters whereas in the 1970's & 1980's this species was so abundant that the observers around at the time didn't bother counting them. 1,383 Cormorants went out fishing this morning which is higher than in recent days when many birds seem to be missing us upon leaving the inland roost and heading north east to somewhere off the mouth of the Rivers Deben or Alde. The Snow Bunting reappeared on the beach again this morning which suggests either we are incompetent at finding it or it is being nomadic and is not here all the time.
