Not much blown in by the wind.

A strong and gusty SW - WSW wind with some heavy squalls.

South shore (Malcolm)
Just a walk along the sea wall mid morning between squalls.
Kittiwake 1 first calendar year on No.2 outfall.

Fewer gulls were feeding than hoped for. They weren't finding much to eat, which probably explains why. (Cormorant flying off at the end of the clip)

Herring gull

This  Curlew found a crab.


Wigeon 172 beside No.1 outfall
Wigeon

Rock Pipit 1 along the sea wall.

Strong winds continue tomorrow, unfortunately forecast to have some north in it.

Correction.  Kevin advised that the shot of Jupiter he sent for yesterday's post wasn't one from his own telescope, but a screenshot from the excellent SkySafari mobile app.
