5th January 2018

Another overcast day, with light north-westerly winds and temperatures reaching four degrees C. Seawatching highlights included a dark-bellied Brent Goose and 15 Red-throated Divers flying south, a Blue Fulmar moving north, whilst 43 Purple Sandpipers fed on the rocks below the Fog Station. In addition, a Short-eared Owl hunted clifftop fields in the same area.
