 As the point and trapping area was most uninviting due to the strong SW wind, I joined AJG in another visit to the Littlestone Serin. On arrival it was singing and showing well with just the 2 of us there to admire it. Nearby the House Martin colony was busy collecting mud from the newly created puddles left over from yesterdays rain.

Late morning/early afternoon at Dengemarsh many Swifts were hawking over the reserve, joined by a few Swallows, House Martins and some Hobby's.

On the lake of note were 2 male Garganey

A short visit to The Patch this afternoon saw very little of note among the Gulls, mainly due to them all facing into the SW wind and the bright sunshine glare, there was one colour ringed Herring Gull F8ZT which I last recorded on the 08/02/2019. Walking back to the car park a Peregrine was patrolling the power station.

Late afternoon at the ARC a 1st summer Little Gull of note, 3 Hobby's and a Cuckoo.
