After yesterdays interesting walk around RSPB Lodmoor, where it was confirmed that my unusual singing warbler was in fact a Blackcap mimicking, I decided to give the Bill a visit.
Even though it was pretty late in the day for a visit, I still managed 5 Wheatear and 2 Chiffchaffs, which had just come ashore.
Other highlights here were 1000's of gulls and Gannets feeding in the Race.

Lesser Black-backed Gull
Great Black-backed Gull

Guillemot
Wood Pigeon
3 Rock Pipit
Pied Wagtail
1 Robin
5 Wheatear
2 Chiffchaff
Magpie
Carrion Crow
Jackdaw
Starling
House Sparrow
