LANDGUARD - 8th March

 Nice and calm again but with complete cloud cover and a haze in the distance reducing visibility; the wind had switched round slightly producing a little trickle of early migrants overhead (the bushes were still pretty quiet though!) which included 3 Yellowhammers, a Reed Bunting, 11 Siskin, 3 Greenfinches, 6 Chaffinches, a Rock Pipit and a Grey Wagtail while offshore 2,922 Cormorants were counted and two Mediterranean Gulls flew along the shore in the evening (an adult and a first-winter).   

A Chiffchaff and a new Blackbird were caught in the morning and a Firecrest was calling from the Compound in the evening.
