28th May 2024

Weather: ESE  force 3/4    rain showers

Gloomy weather again with clouds theatening even when it wasn't actually raining.

A check on the island early morning had the predicted result, it was quiet except for a House Martin being the only small migrant passing. A few of the breeders were seen: Wrens, Meadow and Rock Pipits, and the Linnets, a juvenile and a male were ringed.

The Whitethroat still sings making it seem like summer. Thirteen Shelduck, 5 Mallard on the pond, 21 Ringed Plover and 9 Eider are with us at the moment.
