Sadly too windy for nets today. Highlights include one Wheatear, 77 Grey Plover, 164 Oystercatchers, 8 Whitethroat, 8 Sedge Warblers and one Grasshopper Warbler. Butterfly numbers were high again with the sunny conditions with a good variety. Assistant Warden Emma's dog Freddy wasn't feeling well so came to the Obs to enjoy the sun!
