27th October 2021

 Weather: SW force 5 increasing 7    mild

Arrivals before dawn have become more regular since the Barn Owl has been on the island, sometimes however it still does not show, as was the case this morning. It was all told a disappointing day with little or no migration, just a few Meadow Pipits passing through to brighten the mood. The odd Curlew and Turnstone were seen and Redshank and Oystercatchers were of course on view.

Two Common Scoter showed on the sea, while the shallow tides just now meant the Grey Seals id not haul out in any numbers.

The Brents that flew in made a total of 88, 3 Little Egrets fed while about 200 Cormorants were around the islands.
