Sunday 24th May

A Spotted Flycatcher in Dead Dolphin Wood was a welcome spring migrant, however two juvenile Mistle Thrush that flew through were arguably the first autumn migrants! Elsewhere two summer plumaged Great Northern Diver were off the seawall, 82 Ringed Plover, 31 Dunlin and 30 Sanderling were in the Bight with 18 Curlew in Shutterton Creek (more autumn migrants?) and off site a Red Kite was over the Haldon Ridge.
