Cracking Red Kite loitered a bit on site before departing across the estuary into Essex. Marsh Harrier in off the sea, Peregrines displaying plus Sparrowhawk causing chaos made it a bit of a raptor morning. On site migrants included 2 Chiffchaff, Goldcrest & Stonechat. Southbound overhead 5 Jackdaw, 2 Meadow Pipit, Goldfinch, Grey Wagtail & Rook plus offshore 11 Common Gull, 7 Black-headed Gull, 4 Shelduck & Red-throated Diver with northbound 4 Red-throated Diver, 3 Gannet & 2 Brent. Singing Cetti's Warbler still with us as is the lingering Snow Bunting.

Ringing; 2 Chiffchaff.
