After a cold night it was gorgeous autumn day with the morning spent gardening which produced Vapourer moth and Brimstone butterfly but very little on the birding front apart from the local Sparrowhawk and Buzzard and 2 House Martins which arrived over the garden and spent three hours feeding up before moving on.
Met up with Dave for coffee at the pond then a walk out to farborough spit with at least 26 Yellow Wagtail remaining from the influx earlier in the week otherwise not much else about apart from Whitethroat and Garden Warbler in the perimeter hedge below farborough bank and 2 Buzzard.
Butterflies seen were Small Tortoiseshell, Large White, Green-veined White, Speckled Wood and Brimstone. Vapourer seen along farborough bank.
This evening at least 2 Yellow-legged Gull adults flew over garden heading for the roost at the pond.
