An early morning visit saw two Balearic Shearwater close inshore off the seawall, with three Great Northern Diver offshore and single Common Sandpiper and Kingfisher at Langstone Rock. On site a Wheatear, two Willow and single Garden and Sedge Warbler with 22 Long-tailed Tit and, overhead, a Meadow Pipit.
Counts from the evening tide included 84 Sandwich and four Common Tern, 59 Ringed Plover, 30 Dunlin, nine Greenshank, a Sanderling and a Barnacle Goose with the Canada Geese.
Year list addition:
159. Barnacle Goose
Other Wildlife: A few second brood Brown Argus were the pick of the butterflies. Good numbers of Six-spot Burnet were on the wing in Greenland Lake where Marsh Helleborine and Autumn Ladies Tresses are in flower.
