Weather: ESE force 4
The southerly airstream send us a few interesting birds this morning. About 100 hirundines came through, mostly Swallows but a single House Martin and Sand Martin amongst them, 9 Swifts also passed over.
In addition some of the breeding Swallows are still here with young.
Two Yellow Wagtails were very early autumn migrants to the islands today. The few waders present today were varied by a Common Sandpiper, a Bar-tailed Godwit and 7 Whimbrel.
Two Linnets were ringed today.
A Peregrine showed up and the female Eider was still here.
