A cloudier day than of late, with periods of sunshine, occasional showers and a strong, blustery south-west wind.
Both the Egyptian Goose and Wigeon remained in residence on pools on the outer head. The recent good run of Hobby records continued, when one flew west over the village early afternoon; two Marsh Harriers flew south during the morning, including one in off the sea during the seawatch. Wader interest included five Lapwing, three Ringed Plovers, a Little Ringed Plover, two Dunlin, a Redshank, one Sanderling and a Bar-tailed Godwit. Understandably given the strong winds, passerine records were scarce, although four Spotted Flycatchers managed to locate shelter on the outer head.
