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.

29th July

A small arrival of migrants included 25 Willow Warblers, three Sedge Warblers, 20 Reed Warblers and 19 Yellow Wagtails. Good numbers of waders were on the beach including 115 Sanderlings and 85 Dunlin and a Common Sandpiper at the Long Pits.

Five Porpoises were feeding offshore.

The moth traps were low in actual numbers caught but still produced some interest with two Rest Harrows, a Jersey Tiger, a Small Mottled Willow, a Tree-lichen Beauty and another Saltmarsh Plume.
