A beautiful sunny day but cool, with very little evidence of passerine migration. Highlights were a total of 14 Buzzards moving through, with a Red Kite, 8 Marsh Harriers and a female Peregrine also of note. On the sea 1000+ Common Scoters and a female Eider were counted, with 2 Siskins flying over calling.
