Last day (of my holiday)

Started off at St.Cath's - gorgeous weather if fresh. Mipits and alba wags predominated flying over. And one chiffchaff, obviously fresh in, dropped in near the lighthouse, called once, then flew north over the fields. No wheatear though - checked both sides of the lighthouse/headland.

Second stop was Whale chine/Atherfield. Again mostly mipits, but possibly a wheatear in/off? headed north across the field. Not enough to say with certainty.

Nice walk though...
