1,360 Cormorants headed out fishing. Minimal sea-watching produced just a couple of Brent & Red-throated Divers plus a Teal south. 2 Stock Dove on the reserve were the first of the year & a Linnet was the first for 12 days. Whilst undertaking another morning of Helgoland repairs 3 Skylark headed south overhead.
As it is rumoured to be getting milder the moth traps have been out the last couple of nights. An Angle Shades this morning is a ubiquitous species that we get here in small numbers at any time of the year, although it can be prone to larger numbers during periods of immigration.
