Although Vines Rustic is very common nowadays, it is easy to forget that it only colonised the UK just 70 years ago!

A wet and wild night, a sharp shower early this morning and a rising westerly breeze put a dampener on all things avian today, but our litter pickers still managed to spot the comings and goings. Southbound were 3 Common Scoter, 12 Common Tern, 3 Curlew, 1 Sand Martin, 1 Swallow, 15 Swift, 2 Tree Pipit and 1 Yellow-legged Gull. Northbound there were 2 Common Tern and 1 Gannet. On site Willow Warblers held steady at 7 birds counted with a single Chiffchaff for good measure.
