A Reed Warbler was recored in the withies and 12 Stonechats were heard and seen throughout the day, including one juvenile from the second nesting pair of the year. A decent count of Swallows today with a total of 143, along with 10 Swifts which is the first time this year that they have been around in double digits.
A walk to the East Side of the island proved useful as the Peregrine nest which has been difficult to locate was finally found and three birds were seen, two of which were falling with locked talons.
Other birds around include: 14 Dunlin (four were ringed last night), four Sanderling, two Grey Plover, one Grey Heron, one Little Egret, eight Turnstones, one Sand Martin, 28 House Martins and one Spotted Flycatcher.
