Weather: WNW force 3
It was a pleasure to see the first Willow Warbler of 'Autumn' in the Obs garden upon arrival, but unlike the family of Linnets it wouldn't pose for photos.
Another good sighting for the islands breeding bird records was a juvenile Goldfinch following one of the adults around the island, 2 juvenile Blackbirds were also recorded and one of the young Pied Wagtails is still about.
Six Swallows are still around the island.
A Whimbrel was heard calling over the Swash, 13 Curlew were about the islands and 200 Dunlin roosted at the north end of Middle. Two Grey Herons were at the North End along with 2 immature male Eiders.
Fifty Samll White butterflies were featured around the island, also 3 Gatekeepers. Water Crowfoot is in flower in the pond.
