18th April 2014

Weather: E-2, cool and sunny all day.

Migrants were fewer today with Blackcap numbers down to six in Lingham Lane where there was also several Willow Warblers and 2 singing Lesser Whitethroats. 

A Common Whitethroat was found on territory  mid morning. A high tide sea watch from the car park produced 12 Red throated Diver, 11 Guillemots, 57 Great crested Grebe, 3 Common Tern, 17 Sandwich Tern and over 1000 Common Scoter.

An early evening circuit of the paddocks produced 4 Wheatear whilst several parties of Dunlin fed up on the foreshore in the evening sunlight.
