On this day - 30th September 2000

The tension was palpable as I drove onto Portland with Dave Gray, Rob Fray and Mark Reeder on board. No worries though as before too long we were amongst a reasonable early-morning crowd at The Verne enjoying a superb juv Cliff Swallow - OMFL! The rest of the day involved relaxed pottering around the bill, picking up a Wryneck, c6 Honey Buzzards, and assorted odds and migrant sods.
