A young reed warbler singing falteringly to itself was a bit of a surprise in the rain this morning. This was followed by another sedge watbler in the compound, along with a few willow warblers. Still a lot of movement offshore, with waders still dominating as one might expect; grey plover, bar-tailed godwits, curlew, whimbrel, turnstone, oystercatcher, knot and sanderling. Small numbers of all, but passage is passage here! Yellow wagtails passing in singles, and small groups of hirundines passing, with sand martin dominating, if 17 south can be called 'dominant'.
Drinker is another moth species that has become more infrequent over the years.
