Monday 21 June 2010

16:00 Sunny 20 o C. Wind W 8mph. Humidity 50%. Pressure 1022 mB. Visibility very good. High tide today 06:14, 8.24m

A beautiful day for the solstice.

The terns are very active, feeding and guarding. There are 2 chicks, one has been walking around outside the nest, the other just peeping over the rim occasionally.


The adults are fiercely protective, and will go after any gulls, no matter how big, that intrude on their territory.

The swan family are down in the dock basin just now, probably waiting for the lock gates to be opened for them.
