ENE breeze and overcast conditions provided the incentive for a mornings sea watching which was rewarded with a Cory's Shearwater heading slowly north at 1010 hrs. The supporting cast was a bit paltry with southbound 68 Teal, 25 Brent, 4 Wigeon, 3 Gannet & 3 Oyk with northbound 45 Common Tern, 18 Common Scoter, 4 Gannet, Brent & Shelduck plus offshore 5 Sandwich & an Arctic Tern. Overhead 8 Grey Wag, a handful of Mipit plus a Tree Pipit south. On site very few migrants although the start of Song Thrush passage was noted. The elusive Tree Sparrow put in another appearance between the obs compound & the cottage.
Ringing: 5 Grey Wagtail, 2 Chiffchaff, 1 Willow Warbler.
