Not much to report from today, still a few baby birds bounding into nets along with a couple of new adult Whitethroats which was a surprise. A juvenile Grey Heron made a brief sortie around the reserve before being repelled by the local gulls. 24 Gannets were seen moving offshore along with a Sandwich Tern, a couple of House Martins and 8 Curlew. Yesterday EWP managed to eventually locate the Lesser Whitethroat nest in the Obs and ring 3 young, the first nestlings of this species to have been ringed here.
