Another bright morning at Dungeness

Yellow-legged Gull
A short seawatch produced 4 Arctic Skuas, 8 Black Terns, 1 Kittiwake, 3 Auk sp, along with many Gannets, Common and Sandwich Terns. Also a steady stream of Swallows moving West with the odd Sand and House Martin.
On the land 1 Lapland Bunting still and a photogenic Yellow-Legged Gull roosting by the road. Also 20+ Chiffchaffs, 2 Willow Warblers, Blackcap and Whitethroat.
Couldn't resist taking more pictures of Lapland Buntings
Nearby at the ARC Pit 47, Golden Plover, 10 Black-tailed Godwits, 5 Bar-tailed Godwits, a Turnstone,  6+ Little Egrets, 2 Marsh Harriers and at least 2 Garganey along with many Pochard, Tufted, Shovellor, Gadwall, Wigeon and 3 Pintail.
