Too busy to enjoy the passage

Marek was out early to find an adult Little Gull on BSL, which of course didn't stay....they hardly ever do, before that he had Dunlin, Green and Common Sandpiper LFGP.

Oddly enough the September Dunlin is rarer, this being only the third ever, the Little Gull was the fifth. No sign of any waders by 09:30 (TAG).

Steve than went on to find the first autumn Water Rail at Teal Scrape, putting us on 92 for the month, with Siskin and Redwing still the most likely to occur. That said a lot is still possible, Bittern, Garganey, Pintail, Peregrine, Greenshank, Arctic Tern, Whinchat, Sedge Warbler and I don't believe we haven't had Coal Tit somewhere this month.
