Back to a standard morning with little variety on offer other than the nine species of Warbler seen today. First thing it was obvious a small fall of
Willow Warblers had dropped in, but as usual as soon as the sun broke through the mist, pretty much all the birds departed the headland. Very little moving overhead today.
Totals are:
Nightingale - 3
Whitethroat - 22
Lesser Whitethroat - 3
Grasshopper Warbler - 1
Reed Warbler - 10
Sedge Warbler - 2
Willow Warbler - 49
Chiffchaff - 3
Blackcap - 6
Garden Warbler - 2
