With wet and windy conditions for most of the day seawatching was the main option with nearly five hours of coverage producing three Shelduck, six Pintails, three Avocets, five Mediterranean Gulls, 85 Sandwich Terns, an Arctic Tern, six Arctic Skuas, a Sooty Shearwater and 516 Gannets of interest. Grounded migrants were fairly scarce in the bushes with just 12 Chiffchaffs, a Blackcap, a Dartford Warbler, three Goldcrests, eight Song Thrushes and a Rock Pipit of note. Visible migration consisted of 42 Stock Doves and 47 Swallows.
Two Porpoises and a Grey Seal were feeding offshore and Nathusius's Pipistrelles were hunting around the moth traps this evening.
The moth traps produced five Palpita vitrealis and three Radford's Flame Shoulders and also a Southern Oak Bush-cricket while a Western Conifer Seedbug was found inside the Observatory.
