A partially Leucistic Brent Goose passing the sea watch hide
I've not posted for a few days due to me sea watching from dawn to dusk and falling asleep as soon i got back home each day. So far the sea watching has not been exceptional apart from a day of 1,500 Little gulls movng East. There have been reasonable numbers of Pomarine Skuas passing, whereas Great Skua and Arctic Skua numbers have been low, Common Scoters have also been low as have all the Terns, Black-throated Diver numbers have been good and there is still time for other species to pick up.

On Friday afternoon we bade goodbye to Tony (Panzerman) Greenland who passed away on 1st April after a long illness. He still had the last laugh on us, as while we were at his wake a superb adult Long-tailed Skua flew past the sea watch hide.😂😂
