27th October

Windy again from the north bringing a succession of nasty showers sweeping through; there were some good highlights on offer though with an adult White-billed Diver past the seawatch hide, a 1cy Glaucous Gull also at the top end, a very late Swallow seen belting south ahead of a squall and a Siberian Chiffchaff in Bewan garden.   Other bits included a single Whooper Swan, 3 Hen Harriers, single Merlin and Peregrine, 203 Redwings, 2 Common Redpolls and 13 Snow Buntings.
