Above - Good local patch birds, Whinchats...


A few of the lads were suggesting an easterly this morning but up here it was just a SSW1. Dull and overcast.

At Seaton Point a Whinchat was nice with 4 male Stonechats and further along a family of 1 male 1 female and 2 juvvy Stonechats brought the total to a respectable 8 birds.

1 Whitethroat was the only other migrant seen but a Great Spotted Woodpecker flying high N, was a good bird here as they are barely annual...

A Stoat crossed the road near the caravan site.
