Stonechat

Another lovely, if chilly day with a feather light NNE wind giving the conditions an edge; an increased 3,713 Cormorants flew south first thing to their feeding grounds while other birds offshore included 2 Velvet Scoter, a Pintail which came out of the river and went north, 4 Common Scoter, 2 Gannets, a Heron, 34 Red-throated Divers and a Shelduck.

On the land we had to make do with a Chiffchaff, a Stonechat, a new Robin trapped, a Skylark and 3 Peregrines with the Port pair seeing off a young male by driving him far out to sea.
