31st October 2015

Weather: SSE force 3
Not a massive numbers of thrushes through today, just 2 Song Thrushes, 2 Blackbirds and a Redwing, but a good passage occurred of 9 Goldcrests, 22 Greenfinches and 2 Chaffinches, also 10 Starlings, a Grey Wagtail, a Pied Wagtail and a Reed Bunting. A Common Snipe this morning was not unexpected at this time of year but is still a decent record for the island. On the shore were 22 Bar-tailed Godwits, 250 Knot, 4 Grey Plover and 4 Little Egrets.
