Five Purple Sandpipers still around, this morning by the wooden jetty. Then to Castle Point for my usual Sat morning seawatch.. At least eight Bottle-nosed Dolphins were entertaining people on the prom (the people, not the dolphins).
Birdwise, first were five Whimbrel heading north, as were at least 20 Swallows ansd a couple of Sand Martins. Also moving north were two Shelducks, a Red-throated Diver, a Fulmar, a Sandwich Tern, four Lesser Black-backed and a Common Gull and a few auks. More unusual was a southbound high-flying Grey Heron, well offshore.
A quick look at the river behind Morrisons revealed a Dipper.
