Moderate north-easterlies with cloud and some brightness today, and a small sprinkling of new arrivals which included a Spotted Flycatcher at the Dams, three Redstarts in the Top Scrub / Long Lane area, Whinchats at the rocket Pole Field and the Tip, a Pied Flycatcher in Parish Wood and three Greenland Wheatears on Carr Naze. An Osprey headed north late afternoon (J&TGD) and the Surf Scoter was in its favoured area this morning.
