19th July 2024

Weather: SE force 3   veering SSE 3 later

Just after sunrise a Reed Bunting was heard calling at the South End, it then flew over the pond heading north and was later relocated by the lookout.

 Rock Pipit CAD was at the North End and has started to moult.

 Linnets seem to be having a good nesting season with the flock today numbering 34 and some birds still on the nest.

 Two Raven again came to the dead sheep/goat, although little now remains.

Around the islands were 300 Sandwich Tern and there seems to be plenty of food for the young.

Nine Eider are still here while 3 Gannets, 6 Whimbrel and 4 Little Egrets were logged and for a change 8 House Martins showed as well as 7 Swifts. Two Emperor Dragonflies this morning and a total of 30 Green-veined Whites, 10 Small Whites and 4 Red Admirals.
