22nd June 2014

Weather: NW 3, 5/8 cloud, moderate vis

After the summer solstice yesterday Obs members could be forgiven for suggesting that autumn is on its way already, especially given the appearance of a Common Sandpiper at the North End and an unseasonal Grasshopper Warbler in the East Side trapping area.

39 Curlew was another sign of returning wader passage and 350 Black-headed Gulls showed the start of the summer build up of this species locally.
