Two
Woodcocks were caught at the lighthouse overnight on the 17th, although the weather which produced these failed to ground any other migrants. A
Hooded Crow was amongst a large flock of 60
Carrion Crows and four
Rooks at the North end of the island in the morning. 26
Blackbirds, a
Fieldfare, eight
Song Thrushes, 17
Redwings, two
Bramblings and two
Chiffchaffs were present in the island's gardens, whilst a
Lapwing flew around the Narrows. The highlights of the 18th included a ringtail
Hen Harrier which flew along the summit ridge mid-morning, a
Short-eared Owl in the wetlands and a
Grey Heron flying South out to sea.
