Hume's Leaf Warbler!

07.45-08.45 from the sea watch hide:
Red-throated Diver: 7E   4W
Great Crested Grebe:  c50 off shore
Gannet: 6E
Brent Goose: 64E
Kittiwake: 7E
1w Glaucous Gull: 1 around
Guillemot: c15 on the sea
Black Redstart: 1 behind the hide
Kestrel opposite Lloyds.
In the trapping area the Hume's Leaf Warbler, was calling frequently and showing occasionally, but it is still a photographic challenge. Also in the area 2 Chiffchaffs and a Firecrest, along with several Small Tortoiseshells and Peacock Butterfly.
At least 1 Black-throated Diver was still on the New Diggings but little else of note.
Late afternoon at Dengemarsh 2 Marsh Harriers were quartering the reed bed, several Reed Buntings were in song and a Stonechat was fly catching from the fence.
