Southwold Dusky but noffin of the Puffin

On Saturday 21st October, I parked along North Road at Southwold and opp 71 (the reedy area where the Blyth's Reed had been seen 2 years eatlier) by 2 bushes in the reeds the "takk" of the Dusky Warbler was frequently heard but we were limited to glimpses of the bird, often obscured but once the whole bird was seen and the strking supercilia seen once too. It flew between the bushes before flying west to the Sallows. Paul & Sara appeared and later Brian S, the finder. News was then messaged out from the local What's App that John B had sighted a reasonably close Puffin just off Ness Point, I ran back to the car. Drove to Ness Point around half an hour later got to Ness Point, parked up but no one was there. Scanning the sea, I couldn't see any bird on the sea let alone a Puffin. Roger C then turned up and we then saw John B who was walking back he had left the bird sitting on the sea but there was no sign of it now. Instead a fine winter- plumaged Knot was on the area just off the compass at Ness Point but people by the compass flushed it and it flew onto the finger promtorary before people walking out over the finger flushed it and it flew north and appeared to land on the small ledge just east of the seawall. I went to investigate and the bird was still there, very carefullyclimbing over I managed to get a few pics of the bird but it was often staying within the shadier half of the ledge. Nice to catch up with RobWin later on as I made my way back to Ness Point. A look around Corton churchyard revealed very little but I saw a Coal Tit, a Song Thrush and Goldcrest plus the Corton New Sewage works, a Grey Wagtail flew up from the entrance to the complex and flew south.
