Woke up 8 Redwing this morning as the nets were opened. The air was filled with Robin calls too as new arrivals were being chased around by other lingering migrants and resident birds. Mid-morning an Arctic Tern was feeding just offshore, caught a couple fish off the surface and continued its way Southbound. A few new Goldcrest have arrived but really struggled to find a Chiffchaff this morning!

Ringing: 3 Blue Tit, 1 Dunnock, 5 Goldcrest, 1 Grey Wagtail, 2 Meadow Pipit, 3 Robin, 2 Song Thrush.
