Eider past in the morning gloom
With the recent weather sea watching is the only real option at Dungeness. So far the sea has produced the goods with Leach's Petrels, Sooty and Manx Shearwaters, Great Northern Divers, 1,000s of Gannets and Kittiwakes, 100s of Auks, Purple Sandpipers which are very scarce at Dungeness, 1,000s of Gulls including Caspian, Yellow-legged and Little Gulls. Oddly my highlight was a Tuna that leapt clear out of the water, the first I have seen at Dungeness.
Juvenile Little Gull
One of at least 4 Caspian Gulls today, this Polish ringed
