A frosty start gave way to a day of sunshine, blue skies and a light north-westerly. North-bound birds on this morning’s seawatch, unless otherwise stated, saw five Red-throated Diver (19 south), a Great Northern Diver, 812 Fulmar, 1831 Gannet (725 south), two Common Scoter, two Velvet Scoter, the year’s first intermedius Lesser Black-back Gull and one Shelduck south.
