A very quiet morning at the Obs was highlighted by the unusual occurrence of a June
Goldcrest in the nets, a female recently finished breeding. The only other glimmers of migratory hope at the Bill came from a fly-over
Hobby, a small trickle of
Swifts and singles of
Lapwing,
Reed Warbler and
Chiffchaff. The mornings watch of the sea was only interrupted by 71
Common Scoters, 7
Sanderling and a lone
Manx Shearwater.
