What was shaping into a watching paint drying circuit livened up a bit as the Isle of Man ferry appeared. It seemed to have dragged in a tight flock of 26 kittiwake which continued into the bay. Almost immediately afterwards, a flock of nine golden plover gained height and seemed to go inland over the barrows. Odd? Perhaps spooked by a peregrine further south on the lune estuary

5 linnet and 6 goldfinch (just one ringed) on seed and a bizarre encounter with two birders surveying the heliport for passerines! More surveyors than birds!! One meadow pipit at the south end.
