Following the stormy weather from the weekend, a change in wind direction and with it the arrival of some birds.
Plenty of Blackcap and Chiffchaff were in the recording area and Meadow Pipît were migrating over. A Grasshopper Warbler was reported from outside the airport, then late morning, flying over Longis pond calling was a Rustic Bunting. This is the third record of Rustic Bunting on Alderney. The first was 17.10.21 the second on 19.03 this spring.
