No major American rarities today (sadly), but another Yellow-browed Warbler ringed at the Carey Secret Garden ringing station this AM was ‘YBW’ number 7 of the autumn for the site which is pretty impressive for a floodplain 3km inland. A Water Pipit was off Swineham Point (scarce there) this afternoon, there were Spotted Redshanks in Lytchett Bay and Holes Bay, c30 Cattle Egret were at Holmebridge and 3 Ruff were on the Stilt Pools at Swineham. In Middlebere 15 Spoonbill were at the top end of the channel and both White-tailed Eagles were in the Wareham Channel all day.
