A couple of hours wandering around the trapping area was a little disappointing this morning, Siskins and Redpolls were heard passing unseen overhead, a few continental Blackbirds, Chiffchaffs, Skylarks and 2 Swallows over were about as good as it got for me. A Ring Ousel was trapped and ringed late morning.
Drake Long-tailed Duck at Scotney today
The sward at Scotney held a few Golden Plover and 7 Ruff along with the usual feral Geese and c150 Wigeon, highlight on the lake was the distant drake Long-tailed Duck.
Adult Arctic Tern at the fishing boats today
An hour sea watching at the fishing boats this afternoon was enlivened by the 2 Arctic Terns, a few Sandwich terns, Gannets and Mediterranean Gulls and a Merlin, but generally disappointing.
