Start Point

0645 - 11.45hrs very poor visibility with misty conditions. Tamarisks near the light house were alive with birds, 40+ Chiffchaff, 4 Blackcap, 2 Redstart and a Whinchat. Grey Wagtail & 2 Yellow Wagtail disorientated circling the light. Around the farm a further dozen or so Chiffchaff, 3 more Blackcap, 1 Redstart, Whitethroat and a Sedge Warbler.

Highlight was a Wryneck (09.55) on the fence line between the car park and the farm, before flying towards the farm and lost in the mist.
