6th May 2026

 Weather: E force 2

 A short visit in a cool easterly found no migrants apart from this lovely Painted Lady butterfly.


Sightings in the short time available were 12 Whimbrel, a Curlew, 3 Little Egrets, 2 Grey Herons, 3 Eider and 6 Shelduck, while on the sea were 300 Common Scoter, a Guillemot and a pleasing sighting of 4 Little Terns. Four Swallows around the island were probably breeding birds.
