Another clear hot morning but still with more visible nets a few birds were caught. A dose of new warblers were in including a couple of Blackcap and Garden warbler, a Chiffchaff and a least 4 new Whitethroats. The highlight of the morning came in the form of a Dutch ringed Marsh Warbler, which appears to be the first of this species to be recovered in the UK from that scheme. The Brent geese continue to move with 157 seen going out, amongst the a Pale-bellied bird. Little else on the move apart from a couple of Med Gulls, a Greenshank, a few Common Tern and a single Little Tern
