1 of 19 Wheatear
2f Tufted among 6 male.
A record count for Fly Flatts.
Another disappointing morning for vis mig with a very wet and misty start with black clouds making it black as night along with horizontal heavy drizzle fetching banks of low cloud across the moor on a SW>4.
A good burst of passerines over as the weather cleared slightly mid watch but again no waders around the shore.
The pond area was alive with Mipits along with 19 Wheatear ground hopping >S and all were gone within 10 minutes along with the Mipits.
No second watch today with plenty to do.
