5th May 2009

The last few days have been dire for migrants ... as was today. However, sea-watching produced 120 Gannets, 200 Common and 50 Sadnwich Terns plus an Arctic Skua as well as 86 Common Scoter, 3 Kittiwake and 10 Manx Shearwaters.

The only other things of note were 24 Whimbrel, 2 Little Egrets and a single Pale-bellied Brent Goose that appeared last night (4th May).
