20th September 2008


A slow morning but a trickle of migrants... 3 Chiffchaffs, 4 Goldcrests, at least 6 Wheatears present (see photo right) a few wagtails over (mainly Grey and Pied - see photo below) and an elusive Reed Bunting at the south end. As the sun broke out and we enjoyed the best of the weather for a few weeks - raptors were much in evidence with 2 Peregrines, Kestrel, Sparrowhawk and Common Buzzard seen (still no Honey!). A Greenshank was in the east side gutter as the tide flooded and at least 60 Sandwich Terns were still present.
