A Brilliant day of sea watching at Dungeness today, non stop passage of birds. 
                                    Todays Balearic Shearwaters were all a bit distant
Little Terns passing the fishing boats

One of the 60+ Arctic Skuas
A flock of Ringed Plovers with a Moulting adult Curlew Sandpiper trying to hide among them
A different angle on a Black Tern
Dutch ringed Caspian Gull limping badly due to the colour ring coming adrift

Juvenile Yellow-legged Gull
There was very little other news today as most of us were sea watching, though the Dotterel was still present at Jurys Gap.
