First push of Sand Martin of the autumn with 32 south plus the first Yellow Wagtail of the autumn. Also moving southbound 52 Black-headed Gull, 14 Curlew, 7 Common Tern, 7 Swift, 4 Med Gull & Swallow with northbound 3 Med Gull. Also on site a dispersing juvenile Blackcap with Greenfinch worth a mention.

Dichrorampha vancouverana is yet another addition to the site list. What is interesting in all these additions over the last couple of weeks is that they are all species that can be common just inland from us.

Ringing: 3 House Sparrow, 2 Dunnock, 2 Goldfinch, 2 Linnet, 1 Blackcap, 1 Blue Tit, 1 Lesser Whitethroat, 1 Whitethroat, 1 Wren.
