21st September

Clear and sunny throughout the day with a strong SSE wind making it a bit tricky in the field; it was quiet for new birds but things of note did include single Red-throated and Great-northern Divers, 3 Herons, 4 Pink-footed Geese, a Merlin, the Barred Warbler still at Quoybanks, a Blackcap, 3 Willow Warblers, 2 Goldcrest, a Pied Flycatcher, a Common Redpoll at Kirbest and a Lapland Bunting.
