Sunday 7th June 2026

 

A Knot on the beach is a bit unseasonal. 

Also unexpected today were 2 adult Sedge Warblers as we haven't seen one since 26th April. Presumably wandering failed breeders, we only have ten previous June records in total. Southbound 6 Oyk, 5 Black-headed Gull, 3 House Martin, 3 Med Gull, Common Tern, Curlew, Fulmar, Sand Martin & Swallow with northbound 5 Common Scoter & Sandwich Tern. A Coal Tit turned up with a marauding flock of Blue & Great Tit late morning.

We do ok for Cream-spot Tiger which is a species largely confined to the Brecks & along the coastal belt.

Ringing: 2 Blue Tit, 2 Sedge Warbler, 1 Goldfinch, 1 Great Tit.
