30 April 2014 Beachy Head Sunny with sea fog from 07.30 Wind light

We sea-watched from 07.00 to 07.30 when sea fog rolled in and was present until at least 12.00 noon when we departed. We met up with my good friend Tony Quinn and covered most of the sites on the Headland and also saw briefly a number of other local birders.
In our 30 minute sea-watch virtually no passage was recorded, the area was again very quiet with a small increase noted in Common Whitethroat numbers and 3 Garden Warblers were present in Shooters Bottom.

Common Scoter 17 E
Swallow 2
Common Whitethroat 18
Garden Warbler 3
Blackcap 2
