6th June

Three Barnacle Goose flying over the area this morning was the dubious avian highlight of the day.

At least two Brown Hares were seen near the Sanctuary and a Grey Seal was feeding offshore.

The first Large Skippers and Meadow Brown of the year were seen and seven Variable Damselflies were seen at the northern end of the Long Pits.
