This afternoon from Firth Hide a Siberian Chiffchaff was making intermittent appearances with another Chiffchaff, also 2 Firecrests there. The birds are very difficult to photograph from the hide in the afternoon due to the low light. Among the 1,000s of Cormorants present was one bearing an Orange Darvik ring marked CR7, hopefully in the next few days I will find what project it belongs to. Also at least 2 Caspian Gulls present when I had to leave early to go onto the marsh for the monthly Harrier roost count, sadly no birds came into my allotted roost, probably due to very high water levels.
