11th May 2012

Very unlike a day in May, west/northwest gales force 7 to 8, cold with showers, unsurprisingly was not conducive to migrants arriving, just a single Swallow and Pied Wagtail all day. Twenty two Whimbrel was probably the best record today with 13 Gannets and 1 Red-throated Diver on the sea. No birds were ringed.
