A nice, calmish start with some cloud cover but the NNE wind picked up significantly by mid-morning blowing the clouds away; again, there was a little scattering of migrants across the area which today included 3 Pied Flycatchers, my first Redstart of the autumn, 5 Willow Warblers, 2 Lesser Whitethroats and a Yellow Wagtail.
Also of note was a juvenile Arctic Skua sat on the sea just offshore for a while, a Fulmar and 86 Teal south at sea.
I then had a rush of blood and drove up to north Norfolk for a walk along Blakeney Point tomorrow morning, I had a short walk in the evening (didn’t even make it to Halfway House) but the only birds of note were 4 Greenshank, a couple of distant Spoonbills and a single Whinchat.
