The much improved weather conditions of this morning produced some leisurely passage of Common Buzzards to the south or SE between 1000 and 1145. One flushed from the dunes, thermalled slowly out to the SE over the the shore, and then parties of 3 and 2 came from the NW , circled across the coastal fields and gradually contined to the south. Two more birds, occasionally involved in tumbling displays, came and briefly joined a non-moving hunting bird over the dunes, before they departed to thermal south-eastwards over the mudflats. A solitary bird seen later at the south end could have been the hunting bird noted earlier. Two more very distant birds thermalling well inland looked like Commons, but were too far away to be definitely assigned to the species. So a minimum of 9 birds was recorded.
The Wood Lark was still present with Sky Larks on a lucerne field by the dunes. 4 Fieldfares and 2 Mistle Thrushes were seen, otherwise mostly the regular species present.
