31st July 2025

 Weather: NNW force 2/3

There were 2 Willow Warblers today, with the right weather hopefully we should have a large fall soon ! A juvenile Robin today, probably bred on the island, we seldom supect them before they fledge. The adult Pied Wagtail and the 2 Goldfinches are still here, also 2 Swallows and 2 Blackbirds. Rarest breeding bird for Hilbre is a Woodpigeon, still on the nest. Among the waders were 4 Ringed Plover and 3 Whimbrel, also on the shore are 2 Little Egrets. A Common frog was noted and invertebrates included a Common Blue bitterfly and 4 Large Yellow Underwing moths.

Ringing: 1 juvenile Robin, 1 Willow Warbler
