A Woodcock was flushed alongside View Point Road in the half light early on. Increasing winds plus more shipping offshore stirring thinks up resulted in more effort being put into staring out to sea. Plenty of seagulls & Cormorants but otherwise sightings were limited to north bound 14 Red-throated Diver, Gannet & south bound 2 Red-throated Diver, 2 Great-crested Grebe, Gannet & Common Scoter. Another Gannet was following ships as were 7 Kitts. Around the site 2 Redwing were new in & a Stock Dove put in an appearance. A large rotund female Sparrowhawk trapped was over 25% heavier than the last one caught (or is that just a recently consumed Blackbird in it's crop ?).
Ringing: 1 Sparrowhawk.
