Raid Warning


::Sirens start wailing::

Attention all hirundines in the Exe estuary area, with especial regard for Exminster lagoon.
Hope's Nose reports two Hobbies northbound at high speed. Watch your sixes, people!



:D



Ahem.

In other news, the stiff SSW blew out pretty much everything on land, with the only birds of note singles of Whitethroat and Willow Warbler. I gave the sea half an hour, despite the blazing sunshine, and was rewarded with 7 Gannets, a Fulmar.. and a Puffin!


More detail when I have more time, but yesterday there was a small fall at the Nose [birds that caught the overnight front, I suspect] with quality if not quantity, and otherwise it's been pretty dead over there.
