Despite the clear conditions there was a welcome, though limited, arrival of migrants with a Grasshopper Warbler reeling in Greenland Lake, three female Redstart, a Jay passed through, four Whitethroat, three Wheatear and one Willow Warbler. In the estuary there were 418 Oystercatcher, 31 Whimbrel, 27 Turnstone, 23 Dunlin, 16 Bar-tailed Godwit, 12 Grey, five Ringed Plover and a Brent Goose. In the evening offshore, a raft of four Great Northern Diver and the drake Velvet Scoter still.
Wildlife News: a few Small Copper, Peacock and Speckled Wood; four Orange-tip almost outnumbered flowering Cuckoo-flowers.
