A tough couple of days as we were blasted by force 6-9 WSW with constant rain on the 10th but just a few showers on the 11th; there predictably wasn’t too many birds to mention with 2 Mediterranean Gulls and a Razorbill offshore on the 10th.
A morning seawatch on the 11th then produced 3 Pintail and a Grey Plover south before we erected some nesting Ringed Plover protection fences and then I finally caught up with the single Purple Sandpiper in the recording area, feeding unconcernedly in the teeth of the gale on the pier at the point.
