6th June

Another breezy day but much quieter offshore with just two Arctic Skuas, three Mediterranean Gulls and a Manx Shearwater of interest. The most unusual record of the day was a White-fronted Goose which flew over the Long Pits with six Greylag Geese.

Four Porpoises and a Grey Seal were feeding offshore.

A Norfolk Hawker was seen at the Long Pits.
