Spring seawatching

When the wind went SW and picked up on Monday morning my thoughts turned to the sea. Naturally I didn't actually do anything until I heard that a few poms and a long-tailed skua had been seen off Toe Head to the west. So I shuffled out to the head and had no sooner sat down than 3 pomarine skuas flew west - fully spooned - cracking! I managed another group of two and a single in the next two hours, also cashing in year tick gank such as puffin, bonxie, sooty shearwater and storm petrel. Five seawatching year ticks - just like that!
