Slowly but surely birds are starting to arrive with Whimbrels and Knot seen this morning along with Sanderling, Dunlin, Redshanks and Avocet in the last couple of days. A Little Gull was seen yesterday and Med Gulls are beginning to arrive with four different birds so fat this week including the first juvenile. The Marsh Harriers are still around and Peregrines and Hobbies are still to be found. Lots of warbler activity again but the Grasshopper Warbler heard last week has once again gone quiet.
