Westerly winds

Tuesday 1st September comments:

Welcome to September. Time is ticking along as we say goodbye to another month and we are well and truly in autumn now (well by birding terms anyway). The islands remain quiet, as the westerly winds continue to dominate, with very little to report. A light passage of Swallows and House Martins this morning was as good as it got, but hopefully this month will bring some excitement and the first Grey Seal pup of the year, so hopefully plenty to report.

The islands will remain open throughout September and for the first time, all of October, so we'll not be bored and I'll keep you all up-to-date with Farnes news.
