Luckily this morning the wind still hadn't turned to the east with a light SW>2 with broken cloud but the sun failing to get through. A cool temperature at 4 degrees but good visibility.
Wheatears were again the bird of the morning with a count of at least 15, one of which stood out as a Greenland being a larger and brighter bird with possibly a second Greenland but at distance on the Robin Rocks.
Plenty wader activity with Redshank, Common Sandpiper and Oystercatcher but still awaiting Dunlin. Very little sky movement with 4 Herring gull >SE and a single LBB gull, otherwise just Curlew, Lapwing , Raven and Kestrel in the sky.
One of the white Greylags which was born and reared at this site last year has just produced goslings of its own with a standard coloured Greylag. Otherwise the morning was down to the usual species.
Next expected birds at this site are, Dunlin, Whinchat and Cuckoo and hopefully Dotterel in the Nolstar field although I've given up hope now as the last sightings at Nolstar was 1st and 2nd May 2017 and the one I found on Soil Hill was 27th April 2008 though the habitat up there is ideal at the moment.
A dry day for tomorrow with cloudy sunshine on a moderate easterly kicking off at 4 degrees. The bugbear being a good chance of fog on the tops early morn.
