Another windy
and cold morning though parting into a lovely calm afternoon of sun. Highlights
of the day include the first Swift of
the year heading over the Withies and the Little
Egret remaining on The Narrows. The
year’s first two Sanderlings were seen
on Solfach with four Ringed Plovers, two Dunlins, 21 Whimbrels,
one Curlew, one Redshank, and 12 Turnstones
nearby.
A
solitary Sandwich Tern was the best sighting at sea where
13 Fulmars, 19 Gannets, and three Common
Scoters were also recorded. Counts
from the rest of the island include three Swallows,
two White Wagtails, 29 Wheatears,
six Blackcaps, five Chiffchaffs, 14 Willow Warblers, two Goldcrests, and eight Goldfinches.
