A very quiet day today, with heavy mist and low temperatures. Migrant numbers were lower than usual, with a couple of chiffchaffs and some meadow pipits moving in the fog. Shelduck numbers up to 11 currently, highest we've had so far this year. 40 sanderlings at the point early morning were of note.
Only 3 birds ringed today, however that beats yesterdays total of 0.
Moths were similarly thin on the ground, with a Pine Beauty being the highlight. This is a coniferous species, no surprise, that wanders in the spring.
Ringed birds: Chiffchaff 2, Robin 1
