Dull morning, weather wise. 189 Cormorant headed out fishing first thing. Migrants were 2 Fieldfare & Short-eared Owl. Purp & Rock Pipit were at the point with Red-throated Diver along the riverbank nearby. It sounds like at least 3 Cetti's will attempt to overwinter.

Chiffchaff from two days ago is still with us as is the photogenic Red-throated Diver along the riverbank. At least 3 Cetti's still with us but that's your lot.

Sunday 1st December 2024

Dull, but fairly mild morning. Worth a mention are single Fieldfare & Woodcock. Brief offshore observations were southbound 16 Wigeon & a Pintail.

Only the fifth site record of Winter Moth, which can be a very common species where it occurs. Being a delicate flyer it probably can't cope with windy locations.
