Spent a couple of fairly quiet seawatching sessions at Hurst recently.

Spent a couple of fairly quiet seawatching sessions at Hurst recently. Very few seabirds other than a trickle of Med Gulls. Keyhaven has been pretty quiet too with just a Merlin of note. Closer to home, at least 3 Stonechats have returned to local farmland west of North Baddesley. These are a very welcome sight as a mixture of habitat loss and bad winters had pretty much wiped them out in much of the surrounding area. #Hurst #Seawatch
