Sunday 27th March 2022

Cool misty morning clearing to give a glorious sunny pm although north-easterlies at this time of the year do us no favours at all. 34 Redwing cleared off early on plus a Brambling dropped in for a while were today's grounded migrants. Offshore northbound 4 Red-throated Diver, 2 Oyk, 2 Shoveler, Curlew & Little Egret. Single Purp was on the point.

Very few moths with nothing new for the year so here's a Dark-edged Bee-fly for a change. Adults are excellent pollinators although the larva are parasites on solitary bees. 

Ringing: nil.
