15th June 2015

A light south-easterly wind, sunny intervals and temperatures attained 14 degrees C by late morning. Seawatching was rewarded with seven Manx Shearwaters flying north, 36 Common Scoters and a Bonxie also north and four Sandwich Terns south (plus four north) along with a Common Tern. Better still, a group of five immature Pomarine Skuas remained off the Headland.

A Short-eared Owl appeared near Old Fall, but the undoubted highlight was a Greenish Warbler singing at Oceanview. A White Wagtail near the Lighthouse appeared to be collecting nesting material.
