30th June 2021

Weather: W force 3  

A quiet day birdwise but a single Raven made an appearance and the female Eider and Whitethroat are still here. Nine Little Egrets and the Kestrel showed and a number of terns fed off the island. We were honoured by having Steffan Walton and partner Becky from Sandwich Bay bird observatory as guests. Sandwich Bay is one of our fellow observatories scattered around the coasts of Britain which are all members of the bird observatories council.

Brown China Mark was one of the moths in the trap this morning while many Cinnabar moths are now flying and 2 Small Tortoiseshell butterflies joined them today.
