A few hours at Goldcliff over the afternoon high tide produced three Golden Plover, one or two Spotted Redshank, three Greenshank and 47 Black-tailed Godwit. Very little in the way of small waders though with only one Dunlin and three Ringed Plover. The best passerine migrants were 15 Sand Martin, one Wheatear and a dose of Chiffchaff. However, trumping all the birds were two or three Harbour Porpoise feeding close-in off the point.
Dropped in at Boat Lane/Redhouse Barn on the way back. The Glossy Ibis continues to potter around and a Willow Warbler plus more Sand Martins and Chiffchaffs added to the haul of incoming migrants.
