A very quiet day!

House Sparrow sun bathing at the observatory a couple of days ago.
A slightly less blustery day started at the sea watch hide where little was moving. 9 Common Scoter, a Red-throated Diver flew west and the usual Gannets and Terns were fishing off shore.
A walk around the trapping area and Long Pits with AJG and BM found a few each of Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler, Whitethroat, Blackcap, Reed Warbler and a Cetti's Warbler but best of all 2 Spotted Flycatchers, also a few 4 Spotted Chasers..
At Scotney still 2 Little Terns, also 3 Avocet, 6 Dunlin, 10 Ringed Plover of note. 
At the reserve no sign of the Black Winged Stilt but a Greenshank, Black-tailed Godwit and Curlew over. At Dengemarsh 2 Marsh Harriers, a Hobby, 3 Bearded Tits and a Raven of note.
