LANDGUARD - 5th July

 Light rain lingered from dawn through until around 08:00, after which it turned into a pleasant, warm day with an increasing WSW wind; the day’s highlight came just after lunch when a male Serin flew in to land in the Poplars at the back of the Obs, gave a few bars of song before disappearing again.   

A few other bits and pieces comprised a trickle of birds moving south including 19 Black-headed Gulls, a lost-looking Brent Goose, a Common Gull, 12 Curlew, 30 Swifts and 2 Whimbrel plus a dispersing juvenile Blackcap and the first spangly juvenile Peregrine of the year cruising around late morning.
