Single female Scoter (left) and Eider were off the west side at the ebb tide this morning and 10 Gannets were out to sea early with 3 Great Crested grebes but again no terns were to be seen.
Thirty two Curlew flying south at Little Eye was a very good number for mid-summer although unexpected bird of the day was a late Whimbrel (above right) that flew down the east side calling.![](//2.bp.blogspot.com/_Gy2B6DAg5NU/TB4FrASxkUI/AAAAAAAACUw/S0og2xQoRP0/s320/IMG_3633A.jpg)

Burnett moths (above right) are now hatching out in numbers, but despite the warm sunshine the only butterfly of the morning was a Small Tortoiseshell.
