The Barred Warbler popped out of roost in our garden at 6.40am but there was no sign of any other passerine migrants. For a change I therefore headed to East Hill and tried seawatching seeing 51 Sooty Shearwaters, an Arctic Skua and a Puffin fly north in just under 2 hours. There was plenty of Dolphin activity and a single Minke Whale with the latter seen thanks to Robbie. Late afternoon 2 Grey Herons arrived in off the sea over our house.
Haroldswick: 30 Common Snipe, 2 Wheatear & 2 Common Crossbill.
