A single Arctic Skua and 109 Kittiwakes were the highlights of a 90 minute sea watch this morning.

In 4 visits to the ARC today the highlight was a party of 7 Sanderling dropping in immediately after one of the very heavy showers. The showers also dropped large numbers of Hirundines and Swifts which quickly melted away as each shower cleared.
