As well as Birdwatchers, we welcome people from many areas of interest including Moths, Butterflies, Bugs and Beetles or just a general interest in Nature and the local environment.

7th July

Birds passing offshore included 24 Mediterranean Gulls and a Little Tern. Very little on the land.

At least four Porpoises and a Grey Seal were feeding offshore.

The moth traps were very disappointing following a cool night with just a singe Obscure Wainscot of any note.

On the RSPB Reserve, a Temminck's Stint was showing well from Firth Hide and four Wood Sandpipers were seen at the ARC Pit.
