Two Velvet Scoter flew north at 0821. A few other bits 'n bobs moving south offshore including 40 Knot, 24 Shelduck, 21 Common Scoter, 4 Wigeon, 3 Great-crested Grebes, 2 Brents & a Red-breasted Merganser plus a handful of Red-throated Divers & Cormorants going back & forth as per usual. A Guillemot was sat just offshore but landbird wise it's down to basics that live here. Couple of records after this was written worth a mention are a drake Goosander south at 1405hrs plus a 1st winter Little Gull offshore.
