Heysham Obs
A ten minute check of the outfalls at low tide paid dividends
Outfalls 0920-0930
Common Tern - adult briefly on seaward ends of Heysham one then Heysham two
Med Gull - 2 x 2CY and 1 x 3CY
Arctic Skua - dark morph sauntered out down the shipping lane at 0924! - midsummer skuas are very unusual in this area with 'no' terns for any off-passage birds to chase
Little Gull - 2CY seaward end of Heysham two outfall
A further check soon on the incoming tide
A little bit on the late side for the afternoon check and just the adult med gull seen and no sign little gull or any terns
Moths
Campion the best of a reasonable catch with pristine Scalloped Hazel reflecting how late a year this is
