Before reading further, could I please ask you to kindly help us fund the construction of our observatory building. Once in situ, it will secure seabird monitoring moving forward and the data obtained from studies will help conserve our threatened species. Click here for further details and how you can help….

A relatively bright, warm day with temperatures reaching 19 degrees C in an increasingly strong south-westerly wind. During the seawatch, a Little Egret, two Bonxies, three Pomarine Skuas and three Arctic Skuas flew north.
A Marsh Harrier flew south over the cliff top at Thornwick. However, the day’s highlight related to the discovery of the autumn’s first Yellow-browed Warbler at Old Fall Steps. A Stonechat, a flock of 350 Linnets and 12 Reed Buntings frequented the Thornwick area, whilst 38 Siskin were also recorded.
