Event wash-out

Heysham Obs
Shame about the weather front this morning - started raining at dawn and didnt stop until lunchtime.  Visitors persevered in soaking conditions for rather limited fare

Redwing - 2 at dawn
Chiffchaff - at least one reserve
Goldcrest - at least 2 reserve
Little Gull - adult and adult-type Red Nab
Wheatear - one north harbour wall
Linnet/Twite - c20 north harbour wall but very flighty

Moths
Two Parsnip Moth the best of a routine small catch
