25th - 26th August

The highlights of a fairly uneventful day's birding on the 25th came from the seawatching hide, from which 2 Pomarine Skuas, 2 Sooty Shearwaters, 7 Manx Shearwaters and 5 Storm Petrels were seen passing the island. On land, a Lesser Whitethroat and Reed Warbler were the only noteworthy new arrivals and a Barred Warbler was still at Holland House. An even quieter 26th had little besides yet another new Reed Warbler, a couple of Peregrines and a long-staying Barred Warbler.
