A dry day, mainly cloudy with a moderate easterly breeze;
the day’s highlight was great views of a smart BLYTH’S REED WARBLER which showed well at Sandback, sometimes
alongside a Reed Warbler (the first
of the autumn). Didn’t really stick to
any census route through the day and birds included the Greenish Warbler still round the Obs, 2 Whinchats, 7 Willow
Warblers, 2 Greenshank, 29 Black-tailed Godwits, a Whimbrel, 3 Ruff, 2 Wigeon,
22 Teal and 5 Herons – a bit of a disappointing day in a way, loads of slogging
around for not much reward!
