As promised, a dry day at last with 50% cloud and sunshine on a light NW>3 at10 degrees.
Preparations for the sailing club open day this morning so restricted to the west bank to avoid any disturbance with no waders in the usual SE corner.
Common Sandpipers were spread along the west bank whilst the main of the waders were way across in the far NE corner on a strip of mud banking but too distant from the west bank, even through the scope, due to heat shimmer along the shore. I picked out at least 2 Ringed Plover that flew across the water whilst several small waders were working the shoreline what looked like Dunlin, going by the jizz of them but can't be sure.
Wheatear were the birds of the day with it being very unusual to get June birds up there. At least 4 juveniles present, including the home bred 2 whilst at least 5 adults showing as 2 CY, still retaining their brown primaries.
Otherwise, 3 Raven, which have bred locally, 2 Herring and 2 LBB gulls, along with 2 Stonechat and several Swifts, plus the usual species.
Cloudy sunshine for tomorrow with the problem of a light easterly which could bring poor visibility, starting off at 10 degrees.
