16th October

The wet weather and relentless Westerly winds continue, clearly reflected in today's showing of migrants with just 27 redwing, a song thrush, and both the chiffchaff and goldcrest still at Holland. The whinchat was again seen by Trebb, 3 robins were still present and a lapland bunting and 28 snow bunting were seen. Slightly more noteworthy was a scaup in Linklet Bay during the afternoon.
