Wheatear

 I'm not going to describe the weather again as I'm sure you can guess...   The highlight was offshore where our overdue first 12 Common Terns and a Sandwich Tern flew north whilst other birds comprised the singing fort Black Redstart still, 3 Blackcaps, a Chaffinch, a Goldcrest, a smart male Lesser Redpoll, 2 Wheatears and three Whimbrel which eventually went south after changing their minds several times.

Ringing: Goldcrest 1, Goldfinch 1, Linnet 1
