1,705 Cormorant went out fishing early. Southbound 10 Kitts, 9 Common Gull, 5 Pintail, 3 Black-headed Gull, 3 Common Scoter, 3 Red-throated Diver, 2 Shelduck, Brent, Fulmar, Pom Skua & Red-breasted merganser with northbound 6 Gannet, 5 Common Scoter, 2 Red-throated Diver & Oyk. The Fulmar is notable as we don't see many at this time of the year plus it went directly behind a Porpoise we were watching not to far offshore which is also notable for this time of the year. Sparrowhawk paid a visit but otherwise fairly grim with the weather deteriorating as the morning went on.
