Gann late afternoon, in very stiff winds: 19 Dunlin, 13 Ringed Plover, 1 Little Egret, 1 Grey Heron & 1 adult Little Grebe (my first of the autumn here).
Dale Airfield: even windier, unsuprisingly, habitat looks great still with cropped turf adjacent to the main runway and plenty of pools on the runway itself, but only birds were 2 Oystercatcher, 2 Curlew and a small flock of roosting large gulls. Will the 2000s fail to yield the much desired Buff-breast, following the glory days of the mid 80s and 2 records in the 90s? (All records at this site: 1 in 1983, 5 (or 6?) in 1984, 2 in 1985, 1 in 1994 and 1 in 1996). Upper pic is the '96 bird and lower the '94 one.
