A small thrush movement this morning as a result of the light south easterly, 6 Redwings (with one seen 'in off' the sea) 7 Blackbirds and 3 Song Thrushes were present, while 45 Starlings flew west. On the sea were 2 Red-throated Divers, 25 Guillemots, 3 Razorbills,15 Great Crested Grebes, and after the single yesterday 5 more late adult Gannets flew north. A massive 15,000 Knot were between Little Eye and the north shore, also 100 Sanderling and 40 Grey Plover. Three Common Seals were noted in a separate haul out from the Grey Seals on the west hoyle.
