A day much the same as yesterday with very little of note on the land. The male Swallow continued to sing around the Observatory but seems to have failed to attract a mate.
Nearly all the interest was on the sea today with a large flock of Gulls feeding off the Jetty at first light although it mainly contained Herring Gulls, Lesser Blackbacks, 2 Mediterranean Gulls and a Common Gull. A flock of 65 Brent headed out of the river and north as did 2 Kittiwakes and a group of 12 Common Terns were feeding off the beach.
In the moth traps this morning was the first Privet Hawkmoth of the year.
Ringing: 1 Linnet
