Much of the same today, although it’s feeling more and more like (early) spring as each day goes by, with Common Wasp, Red Admiral Butterflies, daffodils and carpets of Snowdrops all reported and seen today. The ‘standard’ birds were once again c10 Black-necked Grebe off Middle Beach with 1 Great Northern Diver, off Jerry’s Point there were 4 Goldeneye with another 2 off Baiter. 19 Sanderling were in Bramble Bush Bay and the ringtail Hen Harrier was seen at Middlebere late afternoon.
