8th June

Small numbers of migrants continued to arrive, with new warblers and flycatchers still appearing late in the afternoon. Scarcities were represented by 3 Icterine Warblers in the north-west part of the island and the same Marsh Warbler at the observatory. At least 13 Spotted Flycatchers were found by the end of the day, most of which seemed to have come in after lunch; other migrant counts came to 4 Garden Warblers, 2 Blackcaps, 2 Whitethroats, 4 Willow Warblers, 2 Chiffchaffs, a Dunnock and a Swift.
