Another very hot day. A few migrants on the land with 15 Willow Warblers, 16 Reed Warblers, a Grasshopper Warbler, 15 Lesser Whitethroat, 35 Whitethroats and ten Yellow Wagtails. In the evening, 200 Mediterranean Gulls and an Arctic Skua were feeding offshore.
Two Small Mottled Willows, a Delicate and a Scarce Bordered Straw were of interest from the moth traps.
Elsewhere of note was a first-winter White-winged Black Tern on Burrowes Pit on the RSPB Reserve.
