Easter easterlies - SCP - Little Gulls

Easter weekend/Sunday: a pretty decent sea watch at 'St. Cath's' this morning, 6:25 - 10:30 [4hrs], and some variety, enjoyed with a few local birders, Dave and co (six in total being quite a turnout these days). Sunny intervals, moderate SE/E. winds. 

Highlight(s) eastbound: 51 Little Gulls and a Garganey, several Arctic Skuas, and an in-off Yellow Wagtail. (Yesterday, a Brambling over Ventnor Downs).  

 



A recent noc-mig session at SCP had been disappointing. Save a local Barn Owl - briefly perched on the wall next to me.
