1 X Snipe, 1 X female Sparrowhawk, 7 X Chough, 1 X Whitethroat (late in the year) and lots of linnets (flying westward) Whiting bay

At Whiting bay, 07.14h-08.05h.

1 X Snipe, Flew in from the beach and high overland then dropped onto land over the brow of the hill

1 X female Sparrowhawk, on the ground in the car park as I drove in.

7 X Chough, a group of 4 (FOR THE 3RD TIME! A FAMILY?) 4+2+1

1 X Whitethroat (late in the year) sitting on a blackberry twig at the edge of the scrub and the grass field. He sang beautifully but short maybe two bursts in all, then dropped down into the lower parts of the rushes.

and lots of linnets (flying westward) at least I think they were, they were all over the place as I left the house (no.3) and later on the beach while walking

of course great blacked backed gulls and curlew, and oystercatchers,
