12th August


Sunny and breezy throughout with a Redstart the highlight of another meagre catch in the nets while offshore a few Dunlin and Knot flew backwards and forwards and a couple of Greylag Goose flocks went south; single Yellow Wagtail and Tree Pipit were around the lighthouse and 3 Sparrowhawks and a Merlin bombed around.

                There was an increased 76 Dunlin around the coast but most other waders were reduced from yesterday and there were no oddities in amongst them but did include a Spotted Redshank, 33 Golden Plover and 2 Ruff while one of the three Slevdalsvann juvenile Marsh Harriers ventured out into the recording area for the first time.
