Friday 14th August

No sign of either Kentish Plover today but a noticable arrival of waders and even wildfowl with the first two Wigeon of the autumn. Apart from these the pick of the new arrivals was another Wood Sandpiper briefly in the Bight and three juvenile Little Ringed Plover. Counts from the estuary included 187 Ringed Plover, 141 Dunlin, 27 Sanderling, seven Mediterranean Gull, six Sandwich and five Common Tern, two Knot and the Slavonian Grebe. Passerine migrants were limited to seven Wheatear.
