A quiet and quite settled period with few highlights; a Red Kite on 12th, an Osprey through at 1235 on 15th, up to six Oystercatchers and five Common Terns-both species vying for breeding rights on the two Tern rafts along with Greylags, Tufteds & Moorhens. At least two Green Hairstreaks on 14th in the recording area.
