11th June

Although a slightly quieter day, there were still a few new birds around, the highlight of which was a female Red-backed Shrike at the north of the island. The only other scarcity was the Marsh Warbler that was ringed on 30th May, reappearing unexpectedly in the Holland House mist nets. Other migrants included a Kestrel, a White Wagtail, a Robin, the same late Dunnock, 2 Whitethroats, 2 Garden Warblers, 4 Blackcaps, 3 Chiffchaffs, a Spotted Flycatcher and a Siskin.
