Disappointing day

Another day that looked better than it turned out with only 3 Mediterranean Gull, 1 Sparrowhawk, 8 Whitethroat, 3 Lesser Whitethroat, 1 Reed Warbler and 10 Willow Warbler the only birds of note.

1 hour seawatch

Put another hour in at climping beach this morning, with a good south westerly i was hopeful of some good passage. 25W Gannet, 1E Commic Tern, 1W distant skua, probable Artic, 4W Whimbrel, 18W Oystercatcher, 2W Curlew, and 1W Med Gull. At the mill bushes 2 Blackcap, 2 Whitethroat, 2 Lesser Whitethroat, and 2 Grey Partridge, with several Swift heading out to sea.

Two hour seawatch

Spent two hours off Climping Beach this morning with little reward the highlight being 2 adult Med Gull close inshore moving west. 7E 3W Gannet, 1E Common Scoter, 3W Sandwich Tern, 2E Little Egret, 25E Sand Martin and 10W Oystercatcher, was all i could manage it what appeared good conditions.
