Little Gull passage!

Little Gulls Passing the fishing boats this afternoon.

Waking up to rain and gales I had a leisurely breakfast and spent the rest of the morning doing domestic stuff before going to the fishing boats for some sea watching, most the time it was gloomy with some rain but the Little Gull passage made it worth while:

Red Throated Diver: 12W     8E
Fulmar: 2W
