The first Cuckoo of the year in Nant Valley, a Tree Pipit on
Pencristin and six Grasshopper Warblers in the gardens and withies were amongst the
more notable sightings of the day. A scattering of warblers inland saw fewer numbers than yesterday, although a single Goldcrest was new in. Wheatear-numbers were again around the forty-mark, whilst two Sand Martins, 49 Swallows and nine House Martins passed through. A Sparrowhawk and Kestrel were seen around the mountain raptor-wise, and three Curlews and 19 Whimbrels were seen around the
coast.
