8th Jan

A biting, cold day with very strong NE wind and snow from mid-morning. The only coverage was on the sea where two hours produced a Sandwich Tern, just under 3000 auks and 128 Red-throated Divers. First-winter Caspian Gulls were seen at the Patch and coming to offerings at the fishing boats.
