The avian highlight this morning was a flock of 5 Herons that flew west low over the sea as I made my way to The Patch, where c30 Gannets moved east, 9 Swifts flew west, 3 Mediterranean Gulls were around but not a single Common Tern there. A Black Redstart was singing behind the hide, at least 10 Hummingbird Hawkmoths 2 of which were mating were around the car park and Lighthouse, also 3+ Painted Ladies.
The strong wind today made birding very difficult today, consequently little of note was seen around the reserve or Scotney.
