Today's highlight was a Hume's Warbler which was first heard calling from the front garden of the Observatory as I was checking through an empty moth-trap. It was very difficult to see but eventually we were able to get good enough views to confirm its identity but it soon disappeared as the weather closed in and was not seen again after 0830hrs.
Seawatching produced an easterly movement of 268 Brent Geese, (surely not returning birds already?), three Mediterranean Gulls and 323 Gannets.
Two Grey Seals were feeding offshore.
