Ramsey

Hooded crow was the highlight of today. A less than annual record out here. Also good hirundine movements - minimum of 2000+ swallows, 200+ swift, 50+ house martin with 1 sand martin completing the set. Most came through this afternoon, heading west.

Also - 2 collared doves plus a few new blackcaps and a garden warbler. Auks on in good numbers today but hardly any guillemots on eggs yet.
