An overcast start to the month but it gradually broke up, producing a pleasant day with the sun making some half-hearted appearances; the most notable event of the day was three juvenile Great-spotted Woodpeckers all arriving together mid-morning – possibly all from the same brood but anyway, a record day count for the Obs!
Other birds comprised the Black Redstart family, two lingering Chiffchaffs, 10 Curlews south, a Whimbrel, a Grey Wagtail south, 4 Teal south, 9 Oystercatchers, 12 Sandwich Terns and 55 Swifts.
