A crystal clear night followed by an absolute scorcher of a day produced unsurprisingly little in the way of scarcities. The terrible two continued their stint at the opposite ends of the spectrum, the Wryneck being ultra-elusive and the LaplandBunting dangerously unafraid (it nearly got run over by an uninitiated cyclist). Besides this, the early morning was spattered with flocks of high flying flocks of MeadowPipits and diminished numbers of Yellow and WhiteWagtails were to be found on the deck around the Bill and east cliffs. Hirundines put in a decent passage although numbers were difficult to ascertain over such a broad front, the maximum count of a single flock of Swallows reached 700 above the top fields.
