Largely overcast through the morning with a stiff NE wind becoming bright and sunny by the afternoon; the now daily scattering of migrants was highlighted by a superb Wryneck which I found in a mist-net mid-morning. Also present were 3 Lesser Whitethroats, a Grey Wagtail, 2 Yellow Wagtails, 3 Willow Warblers, a Whitethroat and 2 Blackcaps.
Elsewhere, a Black Tern was offshore with 94+ Sandwich Terns first thing, 30 Teal went south, 2 Knot flew north and 11 Swallows couldn’t make up their mind which way to go.
Also of honourable mention was an Osprey scoped up the river hovering over the water opposite Trimley Marshes first thing – rubbish views and a long way outside the Obs recording area but still nice though!
