Another day of very strong westerly winds, although there were largely bright skies. Highlights of the seawatch were limited to 305 Shag leaving the cliff roost – the largest tally of the winter – and a single Puffin flying south.
Away from the sea, 25 Pink-footed Geese flew south, three frequented the headland along with two White-fronted Geese. A single Shelduck on Thornwick Pools was unseasonal, with additional sightings including 19 Wigeon, 35 Teal and a Water Rail. An unseasonal Kingfisher overflew the golf course.
Finally, Xmas wishes to all followers of this ‘blog’!
