Despite the clear sky there was plenty of passage through the islands this morning with many parties of Skylarks totalling 50 birds, finches also featured with 8 Goldfinches, 4 Greenfinches, and a Chaffinch, alongside 2 Starlings and a Redwing. A single Goldcrest was down with 2 Blackbirds and a Song Thrush. The 11 Eiders stayed very close to the rocks at times.
Redshanks are still increasing in numbers, 256 were counted today, aslo 34 Dunlin, 2 Bar-tailed Godwits, 2 Grey Plover and 30 Curlew.
The Purple Sandpiper of yesterday could not be found on the low tide.
