Very inhospitable coastline for young Shag - this one didn't make it through the winter.

1,555 Cormorant went out fishing. Some offshore action (but not a lot) with southbound 16 Black-headed Gull, 4 Brent & Red-throated Diver with northbound 127 Black-heads, 9 Red-throats,2 Brent, Gannet & Guillemot plus a couple of Red-throats & Guillys sat on the sea. On site cold & quiet although 10 Great Tit (don't get double figure winter counts very often), 4 Linnet & Goldcrest noted.

Ringing: 1 Chaffinch.
