There were a few grounded migrants in the area with 80 Chiffchaffs and 40 Blackcaps along with a Spotted Flycatcher and a Whinchat of interest. The morning though was dominated by a spectacular movement of birds overhead with 4,000 Sand Martins, 45,000 Swallows, 5,750 House Martins and 2,300 Meadow Pipits and with other bits and pieces including five Yellow Wagtails, two Grey Wagtails, three Tree Pipits and ten Reed Buntings. The sea remains very quiet with just a flock of three Balearic Shearwaters and also three Arctic Skuas of note.
Four Porpoises were feeding offshore.
The moth traps produced three Palpita vitrealis and our fourth Convolvulus Hawkmoth of the autumn.
