Weather: NW 1, 2/8 cloud, poor vis with mist around the estuary at dawn
Despite the 'wrong' wind direction the light mist produced a nice small fall on the island involving 8 Willow Warbler, a Chiffchaff and an early male Goldcrest (which was caught and ringed). A single Wheatear graced the island but there were few other migrant passerines,
The Magpie was noted as was a Greenshank - a typical late August record.
Three Arctic Skuas were noteworthy on the seawatch.
Ringing: Robin, Willow Warbler (3), Chiffchaff, Goldcrest [630-30]
