19th April 2015

An early morning visit before the tide was rewarded with a few new birds despite the wind being from the south with no east in it. Two Greenland Wheatears, two Willow Warblers & a female Blackcap were new in and duly caught & ringed. A Whimbrel was seen and heard along the west side and two Jackdaws & a Collared Dove flew over. 4 Goldfinches made a brief appearance in the Obs garden before heading off to the mainland. The rabbit made an appearance & 76 Grey Seals were hauled out in the West Hoyle bank.
Ringed: 2 Greenland Wheatear, 2 Willow Warblers & a Blackcap.        [ 210-29 ]
