27th Oct

Fresher WNW winds resulted in a very quiet day with a few birds passing overhead including  30 Stock Doves, 18 Jackdaws, two Woodlarks, a Brambling, and two Redpolls and just a Woodcock, eight Chiffchaffs and a Firecrest of note in the bushes. A leucistic Kestrel was also seen. Seawatching produced just 41 Kittiwakes, seven Mediterranean Gulls, 301 Razorbills, and 184 Gannets.

Two Porpoises, a Common Seal and two Grey Seals were feeding offshore.
