A three hour seawatch this morning provided us with an interesting assortment of birds moving down Channel. We had 73 Gannets, a Shag, 35 Common Scoter, a Teal, seven Shelduck, three Dunlin, seven Whimbrel, two Curlew, 21 Knot and five Oystercatchers. Also 26 Kittiwakes and 18 Mediterranean Gulls of different ages flew W with 45 Commic Terns and four Black Terns. There were two Arctic Skuas in the area and up to three Harbour Porpoises feeding offshore.
