A male ring ouzel and a male blackcap were at the lighthouse this morning with a black redstart nearby. A few chiffchaffs and goldcrests were at Shite Lane, with a female ring ouzel in the fields nearby.  The lesser yellowlegs was seen again at Rosscarbery this morning, with a yellow-legged gull also there.
