Another Wryneck!

 Wryneck

  Another very quiet day for migrants on the peninsular, the Wryneck was still present and joined by another in the High Gorse, also a Common Redstart there and Merlin dashed through. Around the peninsular a few Common and Lesser Whitethroats, Blackcaps, Chiffchaffs, Willow Warblers, Whinchats and Wheatears. An influx of Kestrels on the peninsular at the moment, 11 around The Desert, 8 at the ARC, 12 at Galloways etc.

This afternoon Mike Puxley found a Pectoral Sandpiper on Dengemarsh, which quickly disappeared and was relocated on the ARC, but only stayed there for a couple minutes before being flushed by 1 of the many Kestrels on the peninsular, fortunately it was again relocated on Dengemarsh where I managed to catch up with it.

This evening 4 Cattle Egrets, 11 Great White Egrets and 3 Little Egrets roosted on the ARC. 10+ presumed Black Terns, it was to dark for me check for White-winged Black Terns.
