However, an increase in wader numbers kept the interest going with good numbers of Dunlin and Ringed Plover roosting on Middle Eye. These were joined by 12 Bar-tailed Godwits including two summer plumaged birds and a flock of 18 Sanderling. Most were in winter plumage but there were a few transitional birds and one summer plumaged individual. Meanwhile on the West Side 12 Whimbrel roosted over the high tide.
Of interest on the sea was a single Red-throated Diver, 2 distant Gannets and just a solitary Sandwich Tern.
On the passerine front there were a few Swallows after the high tide and two Siskins passed over. A single House Martin was also logged.
The Obs hosted a visit from a local wildlife group, led by Jeff Clarke and the visitors were given a talk by the Secretary about the Obs and its work.
