Grey Wagtail 1, Willow Warbler 1.
Lovely pm on #Portland - just enough breeze! Families of #Peregrine, #LittleOwls x 2, #Kestrels x 3, #Raven. Crystal-clear sea & the bluest sky... @PortlandBirdObs @DorsetWildlife @DorsetBirdClub pic.twitter.com/OaCPNo0a06

Departing migrants maybe a little slower than average getting out here (eg still no Sedge W or Grasshopper W); today's Willow Warbler was, surprisingly, an adult right in the midst of post-breeding moult so hardly in tip-top condition for long distance movement pic.twitter.com/xJKGrOFSWt
