7th July 2018

Another sunny, warm day, with temperatures peaking at 20 degrees C and light onshore winds. During the seawatch, 20 Common Scoter and a Bonxie flew north, with 18 Manx Shearwaters, a Dunlin, 55 Redshank, 16 Sandwich Terns and two Arctic Skuas flew south. Thornwick Pools hosted 15 Dunlin and three Little Ringed Plovers. The most interesting passerine record referred to a Crossbill that overflew Oceanview.
