An excellent start to our visit to Portland, initially an Osprey seen heading out to sea off the bill.
A walk a little later towards the west cliffs turned up 5 Stonechat, 2 Whitethroat, 2 Wheatear, 6 Swift, Little Owl, approx. 100 Swallow (thinking about crossing the channel) and 1 Meadow Pipit before Glen (assistant warden) called us over to the Pulpit pub where the juvenile Rose-coloured Starling was sat on the pub roof along with a flock of European Starling and eventually flew off and then a Wryneck seen in the brambles nearby.
Dragonflies: Emperor, Common Darter.
Butterflies: Holly Blue, Painted Lady, Red Admiral, Meadow Brown.
