Some decent horrible weather for a change and some things which have been scarce/non-existent this year
Sea 0810-0940 Heysham north wall
Great Northern Diver - on the water 0845, then flew after about 30 seconds and disappeared around the wooden jetty remains - lost in the poor visibility. Almost certainly a juv - faint impressions of dull edgings to mantle. Big feet!
Red-throated Diver - 1+1+2 out
Guillemot - one on water close in
Pintail - flock of 13 out
Shelduck - 5+23+18+14 out
Great-crested Grebe - juv on water
Rock Pipit - one windblown bird
Mammal
Grey Seal close inshore
Moths
All singletons of species with Red plus a hyphen, the latter pretty scarce here! Red-line Quaker, Red-green Carpet, Red Sword-grass
