Early morning a few of yesterday's terns were seen leaving the estuary with a distant flock of 16 'commic' Tern south along with three Arctic and a Black Tern and single Pomarine and Arctic Skua.
There was no news on the dowitcher with counts from the estuary including 411 Wigeon, 62 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 20 Shelduck, 12 Cattle Egret, four Great Crested Grebe and a Pintail. Around The Bight, the six Eider were on Finger Point with waders numbers limited to 32 Ringed Plover, 31 Dunlin and two Bar-tailed Godwit amongst the Oystercatcher.
Elsewhere a Yellow-browed Warbler was in Dead Dolphin Wood, the first September record for the Warren, the earliest previous record was on 3rd October 1988. The only other migrants reported were six Chiffchaff and a Wheatear with 15 House Martin overhead.
