05:50-07:30, covering neap tide
Point- Garden Warbler, 2 Whitethroat and the resident Cetti's.
Viz mig- non-existent.
Offshore- Mariners Creek extremely busy; 180 Redshank, 32 Grey Plover, 22 Turnstone. All three species uneasy, the 'shanks heading to Friars to roost with the others striking out into Sharps Green Bay and toward Nor, but returning to Mariners. Suggestive of recent arrivals among their number?
A Kingfisher seen to streak the length of Pinup Reach.
