A marsh harrier flew south midmorning adding a splash of variety to our observations. Hirundines still trickling through in small numbers, and willow warbler numbers slowly building up again, along with lesser whitethroats. Finch numbers are slowly increasing also and attracting sparrowhawks daily currently. A grey heron flew south, along with 22 dunlin and 4 grey plover, pretty much the highlights of the passage at sea. 


Landguard does well for Marbled Green, a species that lives on lichens, and has the perfect camouflage for it.

Birds Ringed: Lesser Whitethroat 1, Linnet 5, Robin 1, Sedge Warbler 1, Willow Warbler 8, Woodpigeon 1.
