27th April 2018

An overcast day, with persistent rain arriving from late morning; winds were relatively light and temperatures were pegged back to eight degrees C. During the seawatch, two Manx Shearwaters, 22 Sandwich Terns and an Arctic Tern flew north. 

North Marsh hosted one Wigeon and a Short-eared Owl, whilst a Ringed Plover flew over the site. A Little Ringed Plover frequented Thornwick Pools and the Ring-necked Parakeet again visited gardens in the village. Six Willow Warblers included newly arrived migrants, whilst a Redwing lingered.
