Morning cloud gradually dissipated on the light SSE breeze creating another warm, sunny day; most of the interest was offshore where a push of southbound wildfowl included 321 Brent Geese, 207 Teal, 71 Teal and 10 Pintail along with a Heron, 2 Dunlin (heard overhead before dawn), 6 Oystercatchers, 33 Sandwich Terns, 22 Gannets and an Arctic Skua.
Elsewhere it was still quiet with 42 Meadow Pipits, 40 Swallows and 7 Grey Wagtails south (I caught two out three and three out of four which dropped into the trap) with 10 Wheatears, 3 Chiffchaffs, a Blackcap, a Whitethroat, a Willow Warbler and a Lesser Whitethroat.
Another day, a different Convolvulus Hawkmoth
