24th September 2010

Seabirds from today were 2 Bonxies, 3 Arctic Skuas, 1 Red-throated Diver, 10 Great Crested Grebes and 3 Razorbills. A single Rock Pipit was present.
A member (AEH) going to the island in the dark at 20.30hrs saw and heard a Tawny Owl at Middle Eye. Tawny owl is not surprisingly is a rare Hilbre bird indeed with only 2 or 3 previous records over the years.
