22nd October 2018

This morning with birds moving N along the cliff-top I stood for an hour at the Monument and had two Swallows, 14 Alba Wagtails, 17 Redpolls, 181 Linnets, 41 Chaffinches, 517 Goldfinches, 69 Siskins, a Brambling and a female Merlin. After being joined by Phil we walked the area and saw very little apart from one Stonechat, one Chiffchaff, 13 Goldcrests and a Firecrest.
Later in the Bay we had 25 Brent Geese moving up channel and nine Scoter, four Teal, one Mallard, two Razorbills, one Bonxie and an Arctic Skua down.
A Harbour Porpoise fed offshore.

Phil, Jack.
