Sunny conditions with relatively light NNW winds produced little new. Chiffchaffs again topped the bill with 68, mostly in the Paddock first thing. These seemed to disperse fairly quickly and we encountered a few on the clifftop as we walked back to the Monument suggesting some new arrivals. Blackcaps numbered 47, plus seven Whitethroats, eight Lesser Whitethroats, two Reed Warblers and a single Willow Warbler. A Redstart was in the Paddock first thing and the Gun Emplacement held single Whinchat and Stonechat. There were three Wheatears in the Big Field. Other birds of note included single Yellow, Grey and Alba Wagtails, a mistle Thrush going north and nine Goldcrests.
