Wednesday 21st March 2012

A quiet day with only 2 new Blackbirds, a Redwing and Robin on site, with all of the previous days' Wheatears appearing to have moved on. Moving South were 10 Jackdaw, 10 Starling, 10 Brents, a couple of Woodpigeon and a Red-throated Diver. A firecrest was calling early on and a couple of Chiffchaffs were singing throughout the morning. The Peregrine pair were observed sitting on the dock cranes as per usual and two male Kestrels came through towards lunchtime. Agnopterix curvipunctosa, a Landguard speciality and red data book species, put in an appearance in the moth traps.
