16th July

Nothing of any interest was seen during the morning seawatch, but some decent numbers of waders were counted around the island's coastline and recently cut fields: the latter habitat proving extremely attractive to some 335 Oystercatchers and 55 Curlews. The day's other wader counts came to 721 Golden Plovers, 83 Dunlins, 77 Sanderlings, 113 Turnstones, 9 Knots and 3 Whimbrels.
