Cool & breezy morning for the time of year. Migrants include 2 Sanderling, Reed Warbler & Wheatear plus 14 Swallow heading south. Offshore single Eider & Great Crested Grebe went south with 29 Brent heading north.  Black Red has been singing more reliably off the Fort roof the past couple of mornings best heard from the car park. Apart from this more baby birds starting to appear.

Broken-barred Carpet only occurred here for the first time three years ago and, even now, there are only a small handful of records.

Ringing: 4 Great Tit, 4 Linnet, 2 Blackbird, 1 Goldfinch.
