Yes, @Andy135almost got it, it definitely is the common Wren that we get in the UK. I knew I had seen it, but just could not remember what it was. It is the thin beak that gives it away. We get them nesting in the garden. That one must have been coming back from its migration.

Here you go

Don't think it's a Wren, the tail is too long

A Warbler of some kind I'd say, we've had a couple over the years  around this time of the year when wrecking out of Weymouth

I think it's rare that birds that land on boats at sea survive, they are usually pretty desperate if they land on a boat. Once out of Hayling we had a bird land onboard, think it was a Gold Crest or something on the way back from Africa. It sat in a coil of rope for a while and when it eventually took to the air a fooking gull took it clean out the sky.

nice report there with some nice fish to boot 👌

I toy with the idea of trailering my heap somewhere good like Cornwall but I'm too old for that shit. Easier to sail it off the mooring and fish the mudflats out of Teignmouth for dogfish 😅

Teignmouth !! would be a dream if I was that close to Cornwall.

must be some good fish out there big wrecking grounds ?

I used to tow 1 hr to my local Kent slipways herne bay when I first started 

then progressed to 2 hrs to selsey 

now mostly Cornwall  which is just outrageous 5+ hrs but it’s just that good down there .. either that or I just love it there is a wonderful place .

But try to leave the boat in yards there when I can
