Two Mistle Thrushes were flying around the Point this morning. A couple of seawatching sessions produced eight Mediterranean Gulls and two Arctic Skuas of interest.

Two Porpoises were feeding offshore.

Another very early butterfly was seen again in the form of a Marbled White. There were also hundreds of Small Skippers.
