Two Balearic Shearwaters, 12 Whimbrel, two Sanderlings and 46 Common Terns passed west this afternoon whilst two Arctic Skuas flew east on an otherwise quiet day. 

Five Porpoise and a Grey Seal were seen offshore.

A Bordered Straw was the best of a small overnight catch of moths and a Hummingbird Hawkmoth was feeding around the Observatory garden during the day.
