kak all at sea

Another lame seawatch yesterday am, with tystie once again the highlight, however a fine sanderling on the beach at Long Strand on the way home was a worthy year tick. Result!

Let the seawatching begin!!

OK so it wasn't quite as red-hot as it looked when I first gawped out the window at 6.00am. In fact it was by and large pish, but pom skua, stormie and sooty all through the crease by 7.30 was ok, plus I then discovered I'd omitted to tick off manxie, swift and iceland gull from the scoresheet so a whopping overall increase of six species!

Cowabunga!, as basil faulty might say...
