Velvets

Nick and I did Orcombe in thick fog first thing this morning, and I popped back up later on after dropping the dog off for a trim.
Orcombe totals included 1+ Wheatear, 3+ Willow Warbler, 12+ Meadow Pipit, 2 White Wagtail, 1 Swallow and 5 Whimbrel 'in-off'. Best birds however were 4 Velvet Scoter that flew out of the bay at 1050.
The Ring-necked Parakeet was seen in flight over Rolle Road mid-morning.
Yesterday 5 Whimbrel and 2 Pale-bellied Brent Geese were off Mudbank and on Thursday the immature drake Eider and Slavonian Grebe were off the Imperial.
