A Storm Petrel off the seawall early afternoon was a surprise just the sixth record for the month and with little else passing offshore, also present in choppy conditions at least 33 Common and two Velvet Scoter, three Red-throated and a Great Northern Diver.
Counts from the estuary included 266 Teal, 72 Bar and 58 Black-tailed Godwit, 70 Shelduck, 61 Grey and 19 Ringed Plover, 56 Knot, 24 Sanderling, two Red-breasted Merganser and a 1CY Yellow-legged Gull.
Elsewhere a Cetti's Warbler and a Kingfisher were at the Main Pond, eight Goldcrest, at least six Chiffchaff, single Buzzard, a Coal Tit and Firecrest were in the bushes and migrant Song Thrush were feeding around the shops and along the shore of The Bight.
