It has been hard going for the last few days under the blazing sun. On St Agnes there have been a few highlights with a couple of Firecrest, Jack Snipe, Merlin, Raven and Little Egret. The star was the rare Schmidtii form of Small Copper.

Yesterday was a trip over to St Mary's where there was a distant Pectoral Sandpiper at Porth Hellick, Green Sandpiper and Jack Snipe at Lower Moors and a superb Red-throated Diver at Porthcressa.

We were lucky to catch a Convovulus Hawk-moth in the trap in the garden last, which has been well twitched today.

The weather is changing, so hopefully new birds on the way.
