Another blustery day with strong southerly winds and the occasional shower.
Again coverage of the area was limited, (Paddock, Freedown and Farm Wood) producing 26 Chiffchaffs, three Blackcaps and not a lot else. Overhead meadow Pipits were again on the move with at least 140 and there was a steady trickle of Swallows along with a couple of House Martins and a single Sand Martin.
An hours sea watching late morning produced six Balearic Shearwaters, one Sooty Shearwater, a Bonxie, 34 Med Gulls, two Red-throated Divers, two Shags, two Common Scoter and 40 Gannets
