Strong south-westerlies continued to hammer the Island today resulting in little turnover of species, though the highlights of the day were two Teals, two Ringed Plovers, 10 Snipes, 15 Turnstones, a Whimbrel, five Curlews, 10 Chiffchaffs, nine Goldcrests, four Starlings, 179 Meadow Pipits, a Chaffinch, and 13 Wheatears

In the evening, a Woodcock, a Wheatear, a Woodpigeon were all trapped and ringed.
