As has been the case for for seemingly forever the ARC and Boulderwall have been the most interesting, with Little Stints, Ruff, Common Snipe, Garganey, Glossy Ibis, the 3 species of Egrets, Hobby, etc. Though Burrowes has been hosting a Curlew Sandpiper from the Firth Fence, Apart from Great Black-backed Gulls and the odd Yellow-legged Gull few Gulls have been coming to Burrowes to roost.
A Blackcaps and Chiffchaffs can be found just about anywhere on the peninsular, a Dartford warbler has been residing in The Desert and decent numbers of Hirundines have been passing through but little of note.
