Southbound 2,040 Swift, 50 Herring Gull, 35 Lesser Black-backed Gull, 15 Greater Black-backed Gull, 5 Curlew, 5 Little Tern, 3 Black-headed Gull & Avocet. On site singing Blackcap & Reed Warbler. Although this is a decent Swift count for recent times a blast from the past is a movement of 37,500 Swift south in the first ten days of July 1990 including 16,000 on 1st & 12,860 on 5th - unfortunately these sort of numbers of Swifts probably no longer exist in Suffolk.


The Sycamore is barely annual here amongst a sparse selection of moths thia morning due to the gale.

Ringing: nil
