28th Apr

A lovely day but very quiet for birds. A mammoth ten-hour seawatching session produced just a Long-tailed Duck, 30 Arctic Terns, six Arctic Skuas, a Pomarine Skua of note. Barely a migrant to be seen on the land although a flock of ten Buzzards over the area and two Yellow Wagtails flew through.

Sixteen Porpoises and two Grey Seals were feeding offshore.
