Strong northerlies and heavy rain stopped late afternoon to leave a brief window of optimal birding before dusk; it was immediately evident an arrival of migrants had taken place. Eight Ring Ouzels, 54 Wheatears, six Yellow Wagtails, two White Wagtails, two Common Redstarts and ten Willow Warblers made landfall. Additional sightings included single pairs of Pintail and Shoveler, a Goosander and a Grey Plover.
