Sunday 12th January 2020


Breezy to start with gusting Force 8 by late morning. Definite increase in gull activity in the harbour & offshore with estimates of 1,400 Herring, 400 Great Black-backs, 120 Black-heads, 120 Common, 30 Kitts (including a couple of first-winters) & 2 Meds at least but when they are all flying around at once working out proportions is not easy. Offshore southbound 9 Red-throated Diver, 8 Brent, 5 Wigeon & Guillemot with northbound Common Scoter & Gannet. No enthusiasm to check the point in this wind with all the sea spray so if anyone out there in blog reading land sees anything of note please let us know and it can be added to the log later.
