The first juvenile Sandwich Tern of the autumn was in the estuary on the dropping tide, with a Black-tailed Godwit also a new arrival. Counts included 80 Black-headed and five adult Mediterranean Gull, 70 Curlew, six Redshank and five Whimbrel.
The heat haze reduced visibility offshore but 960 Herring Gull on the sandbars were joined by 14 Mediterranean Gull and four Sandwich Tern.
Other Wildlife: Insect migration continues with Small White and Seven-spot Ladybird the most numerous arrivals. Also on the wing a Golden-ringed Dragonfly increased numbers of Gatekeeper, a new generation of Common Blue and Speckled Wood.
