25th September 2021

Weather: SW force 1, backing ESE 1

An increased nunber of Pipits were on the island today, 68 which means some were moving through, and the 8 Rock Pipits could have been part of this movement. Some of the 5 Robins and 8 Wrens may fall into this catergory. Two Ravens were on the east hoyle side and 2 Peregrines were also logged. Eighteen Brent were noted , also 9 Little Egrets and 7 Grey Herons, this was more than has been recently.

 Among the 138 Cormorants that were seen was an individual wearing colour rings; these were able to be read to be reported.

Oystercatchers at 8,000 and 239 Curlew were the bulk of the waders, although 65 Dunlin and 9 Turnstone were also about .

 Single Guillemot and Sandwich Tern and 3 Great crested Grebes were the sole 'sea' sightings.
