There was some good raptor watching at the south end during the late morning and early afternoon. A juvenile Marsh Harrier passed a party of 6 wheeling Common Buzzards fairly closely. Later, there were 8 Common Buzzards. Other raptors present were 4 Kestrels, Merlin, Peregrine and 2 Sparrowhawks.
Not many migrants seen today. The best were 15 Song Thrushes, 2 Redwings, 10 Robins, 2 Goldcrests, 10 Chiffchaffs, 6 Siskins and 4 Lesser Redpolls. 100 Pinkfeet flew south and a short seawatch saw 14 Gannets north and a Bonxie south. BC recorded an Icterine Warbler by Stonebridge car-park in the late afternoon.
