As I drove across the causeway this morning a Black-necked Grebe was at the northern end of the New Diggings. Meeting up with SO at the observatory we walked out into the trapping area where we came across a Common Snipe, a Woodcock, 4 Long-tailed Tits with Blue and Great Tits, a pleasant walk but little else of note seen.
1w Little Gull
The sea was quiet this morning from the at the fishing boats this morning, apart from the 1w Little Gull. At the sea watch hide a few Auks, Red-throated Divers and the Little Gull again. On the perimeter fence a female Black Redstart was fly catching with a couple of Pied Wagtails.
