A very windy and sometimes very wet day to be returning home. Yet before setting off there was time for a 2.5-hour sea-watch and that proved very fruitful.
A numbers of watchers went to various spots around Portland Bill but a few (including myself) stayed and viewed from the Observatory.
A heavy sea and at times poor visibility made viewing a challenge at times but persistence paid off.
1 Great Shearwater, 2 Cory’s Shearwater, 1 Sooty Shearwater, 1 Manx Shearwater, 100+ Balearic Shearwater, 2 Arctic Skua, 1 Great Skua, 20+ Kittiwake, 1 Fulmar, 1 Auk sp and plenty of Gannet. No photos!
