I went to Leysdown this morning,I was hoping the northeast wind with rain had brought some migrants into the Coastal Park bushes.I arrived just before dawn,due to the strong wind only one of my net rides could be used,a 60ft.Only after a short while it soon became apparent there had not been a fall of any kind,the only migrant I saw was one Wheatear.I did see a few Great Tit,Blue Tits,one Chaffinch,10 Magpie and 2 Robins but that was about it.After about two hours all I had caught was one Robin.I had also looked at the sea but had no luck there either,so I decided to finnish at 930am and call in at Elmley on the way home.
