Another glorious, sunny,
warm day but pretty quiet birdwise; there were again a few Red-throated Divers,
Common Scoter and Red-breasted Mergansers heading north during the first few
hours of the day while the highlight in the nets (and probably the day!) was
the first Willow Warbler of the
spring caught as the last bird of the session.
55 Woodpigeons also went south and there was a Collared Dove at the
lighthouse – pretty scarce out here at the point!
Despite the lovely afternoon the only birds of note
were 9 Red-breasted Mergansers in Sevika, the adult male Marsh Harrier cruising
around and yet more Wheatears getting excited throughout the area.
