Kensington Gardens and Ness Point

The gardens were sparse of birds with only MALLARD coming in with 28 birds but also a family much scattered of MOORHEN only found one parent with three young. The weather was benign on the cliff, with full sun more than pleasant. Here I came across three HUMINGBIRD HAWK MOTHS which had no interest in plants but obviously looking for a safe place for the winter. 
Ness Point: Was no more productive with just four TURNSTON and 18 HERRING GULLS. Mind you I did get a flock of very distant TERNS eleven birds in all heading steadily South. Also a flock of about ten waders flying South but to distant for id.
 This bird was well offshore as well, but still heading South. Called the Caribbean Princess its a good job she is not there at the moment in the hurricane.
