With up to 5 males singing at times, who often have more than one wife each, then exactly how many Cetti's are actually frequenting the place ?

This mornings migrants were 8 Wheatear, 5 Swallow, 5 Lesser 'throat, 2 Chiffchaff & Firecrest. Offshore southbound 4 Fulmar, 3 Kitts, 3 Whimbrel, 2 Oyk, Curlew & Red-throated Diver with northbound 10 Barwit, 6 Sandwich Tern, 4 Whimbrel, 3 Common Tern, 3 Mute Swan, 2 Fulmar, 2 Oyk, Gannet & Kitt.

Pine Beauty very occasionally wanders down here, probably from no further away than the Custom's House grounds at the top of View Point Road.

Ringing: 3 Lesser Whitethroat, 1 Firecrest.
