A bright, sunny day with a moderate south-south-westerly wind and temperatures that peaked at 17 degrees C. A lone Sooty Shearwater flying north was the standout of a disappointing morning’s seawatch. Thornwick Pools attracted 33 Teal, four Wigeon, the long-staying juvenile Spotted Redshank, single Green Sandpiper, six Snipe and two Dunlin. However, the day’s highlight related to the Barred Warbler that showed well in the Bay Brambles.
