14th September 2017

I spent an hour or so in St. Margaret's Bay from 11.00 with moderate westerly winds. A pale phase and dark phase Arctic Skua went down channel as did a group of four Great Skuas with a gannet. Six Knots also passed down, a Hobby and 16 Meadow Pipits came in off the sea. A Grey Seal and four Harbour Porpoises were offshore.

Around Kingsdown it was very quiet in the early afternoon. Seven Chiffchaffs, a Lesser Whitethroat and five Blackcaps.
