Wasn't expecting a juvenile Red-rumped Swallow that stayed for
c.10 minutes - one would have thought that we were used to expecting the unexpected by now ! Otherwise migrants were 2 Chaffinch, Brambling, Redpoll, Woodcock plus a new Blacky. Offshore very quiet. 3 Turnstone, Purp & Rock Pipit on the point. 196 Cormorant went out fishing early on with another 320 coming in from the north to the offshore feeding grounds suggesting that persecution at the roost inland continues this winter.
December Moth just about makes it onto the year list in most recent years.
