Black Redstart

 Another grey and overcast morning with spells of drizzle but it brightened towards lunchtime - although it was hardly tropical!   Quiet on the bird front although bits did included the Black Redstart family, a dispersing juvenile Chiffchaff, a Curlew north, a Grey Wagtail, a Mediterranean Gull, a Sand Martin, 5 Sandwich Terns, a Sparrowhawk and 36 Swifts drifting north.

Ringing: Lesser Whitethroat 1, Chiffchaff 1, Dunnock 1


A number of micro-moths normally associated with Pine woods turned up today including Dioryctria abietella
