A fresh SW wind. It looked like rain all day, but it managed to hold off.
South shore
My only outing today was to exercise my daughter's dog late morning, we walked along the sea wall (MD).
Black Tern 3 juvenile - I actually only saw 1 on No.2 outflow. A little later Pete saw 3, later still there were only 2 when Alan Physick checked.
Mediterranean gulls 17 minimum - there were 5 on the beach between the outflows. 8 on the beach next to the wooden jetty and 4, including one 1st calendar year behind the ferry.
Two Bar-Tailed Godwit were resting on the same beach |
Quite a striking Cormorant in the harbour |
This Guillemot was also in the harbour, seen in the same spot later by Alan. It does appear to be at peace with the world.
Rock Pipit 1 near the lighthouse
Not a single gull on No.1 outflow today, and only a handful on No.2. |
