Another hot one. Southbound 28 Black-headed Gull, Med Gull & Shelduck with a total of 36 Sandwich & 25 Common Terns coming & going or feeding in the estuary. Yet another juv Great Spotted Woodpecker paid a visit & one of the juv Black Reds was siting on the Fort's entrance sign first thing. Worth a mention is that one of our pair of Great Tits has gone to the effort to produce a second brood.

Busy old moth traps included a handful of the commoner migrants plus only the 4th site record of Poplar Lutestring.

Ringing: 5 Great Tit, 5 Linnet, 1 Whitethroat.
