Hot and sunny again with a
light SE cooling breeze; the settled weather did nothing really for the numbers
of birds in the nets with 45 new birds caught through the morning – all single
figures with 9 Blackcaps and 8 Lesser Whitethroats the most numerous
species. 12 Crossbills flew through
early on and at least three Sparrowhawks were around but there was little
evidence of anything really moving right through the day; when are we going get
a taste of the hundreds of raptors which moved through Falsterbo yesterday?
A walk up the coast in the afternoon was also quiet
with 9 Common Sandpipers and 2 Whimbrel on the beach and one small flock of
Wigeon, Teal and Shoveler offshore.
