Arctic Skuas

Off the seafront late this evening - 2 dark phase Arctic Skuas sniffing around a gull flock that included a number of Mediterranean Gulls and several Kittiwakes. All attempts at counting them were compounded by distance and tricky light conditions. At least one Common Dolphin was way, way offshore with a few Gannets in attendance.

Off Mudbank on this morning's rising tide - 11+ Whimbrel, 145+ Curlew, 1 Black-tailed Godwit, 2 Dunlin, 2 Mallard, 70+ Carrion Crows, 1 Sandwich Tern and 1 Mediterranean Gull.
