Some new arrivals today including a Firecrest on the Outer Head and a significant increase in Willow Warblers with at least ten on the Outer Head including a freshly arrived bird singing on the cliff top. Chiffchaffs are pretty widespread now with birds reported from several areas, three were between the Bay Brambles and North Landing, two near North Landing itself, one in the Lighthouse bushes and two at South Landing where there was also a Blackcap. The Brambling remained on the feeders at the Living Seas Centre and a possible Little Egret was seen flying north high over South Landing/Highcliffe Manor, unfortunately the observer was on the phone at the time and couldn’t confirm the ID. Other migrants included a Wheatear at the north end of the golf course and a Redwing near North Landing. Eight Sandwich Terns passed north on an otherwise fairly quiet sea watch. An impressive count of 122 Jackdaws was made at the golf course whilst a Short eared Owl was also seen on the Outer Head.
