Today saw an increase in curlew passage, with post-breeding females and failed breeders moving south towards their wintering grounds. Another notable passage bird was a siskin, briefly seen from the observatory moving south. A few juvenile birds were ringed today, with the highlight being another fresh blue tit, probably moving down from breeding areas closer to Felixstowe. 


Pine Hawkmoth is only rarely recorded here, presumably because of the lack of pines around the Observatory.

Ringed Birds: Blue Tit 1, Linnet 3, Wren 1.
