Another day of wind and rain with migratory land birds virtually non-existent.
A Tree Pipit, 2 Willow Warbler and a Firecrest that has been present in the garden for the last 5 days at least. A single Swallow and 3 Raven overhead.
The sea-watch was the saving grace of the day although we missed the Fea’s Petrel that was seen off the Bill when we were viewing from the Obs.
5 Arctic Skua, a Sooty Shearwater, a Cory’s Shearwater, 2 Manx Shearwater, 38 Balearic Shearwater, 5 Fulmar, 10+ Kittiwake, 2 Auk sp, 1 Common Scoter and 2 Whimbrel.
Dragonflies: Common Darter.
Butterflies: Large White, Red Admiral, Speckled Wood and Wall Brown.
Moths: Striped Hawkmoth, Hummingbird Hawkmoth and Gothic Beauty.
Blue-fin Tuna – at least one seen breaching.
Did not get any bird photos today due to the lack or distance of birds. so Moths will have to do as they were placid and nearby.
