As expected the sea was quiet in a very short watch, with just a few Gannets and Sandwich Terns tooing and froing off shore with 9 Common Scoter flying west.
On the land a Lesser Redpoll in the lighthouse garden, 4 Swallows through. I a plod around The Desert Magpie's and Crows outnumbered passerines which tells its own story.
At the south end of the ARC Pit 2 Black-tailed Godwits, 2 Grey Plover, 3 Dunlin, 2 Oystercatchers and 3 Ringed Plovers.
Round the Water Tower 2 Marsh Harriers, a Common Buzzard flew over and 4 bedraggled Hobby's looking fed up, sitting around waiting in vain for it to warm up and bring out the Dragonfly's, Lesser Whitethroat still singing alon with the odd Cetti's and Reed Warbler. About 13.15 the rain set in so I joined the rest of the country watching the Jubilee celebrations.
