Sharkham Point

Quite a few migrants located on an early morning walk around Sharkham. I'm sure they will be insignificant compared to other sites but not bad for here! 7 Sedge Warbler, 1 Reed Warbler, 3 Pied Flycatcher, 1 Spotted Flycatcher, 12 Wheatear, 21 Whitethroat, 17 Blackcap, masses of Chiffchaffs and (counted at least 40+ feeding in one area),14 Willow Warblers. Both Willows and Chiffs singing. 1 flyover GS Woodpecker with 2 Meadow Pipits. Also a probable Grasshopper Warbler that vanished before i could confirm it.
