9th November 2021

 Weather:  SW force 4, mild

 It was a little breezy but mild this morning and visibility was so good that the Great Orme was clearly seen, it was obviously also clearly seen by any birds looking for landfall in the Hilbre area as there were no arrivals overnight. The Snow Bunting was still there at first light, exactly where it was expected it would be. It was seen initially by the lookout and then in the general area around there, it appeared to be feeding by the gate to the Heli paddock, but was not seen again, although it was reported as present later in the day. Few waders could be found on the short before tide visit. Both the Kestrel and a Little Egret were here. A Wren was ringed and a Robin retrapped.


The hauled out Grey Seals were counted at 117.
