Early days. Always nice to see the first skuas.

This morning's conditions were much more conducive for a sea watch - though it took nearly an hour and half before any such sign of passage - at least it came and in the form of the first bonxie too. Then it was all go. Relatively...Gannets featured the most, with brent and kittiwake also in numbers. The first arctic skua cruised by too, as did some manxies (6+a single), and a couple more bonxies.
