This morning was reasonably quiet with the Common Sandpiper still present and a small number of hirundines gathering. At Lunch time John and Ian Rowe found another Dunlin for the year, which was still present in the evening. Hobby was a new bird for the year this evening making two passes. It was probably attracted by the hirundines that gave away it's presence with alarm calls whenever it was near. John also had a Herring Gull through today.
