Today’s 3 hs count only produced 4 Manxies, 3 Balearics, 8 Sooties, 17 Cory’s, 3 Arctic Skuas, 8 Bonxies, 35 Sandwich Terns, 11 «commic» Terns, 8 Black Terns and 3 Whimbrels. Very few birds for this time of the year. Let´s hope that the inminent change of winds will provide a much better passage for the next days!
In the headland, good numbers of Whinchat and Pied flycatchers and the first 2 Wrynecks of the autumn. Observers: Ricardo Hevia Ray Murray from Scotland was today early in the morning at the tip of the headland and during 2-hs count he watched the following birds towards the West: 25 Gannets, 22 Common Scoters, 1 Teal, 11 Manxies, 7 Cory's, 4 Balearics, 1 Pomarine, 4 Sandwich Terns, 7 "Commic" Terns, 1 Sabine's Gull (ad.), 1 Little Gull (ad.). Also 1 Kittiwake (ad.) towards the East.
Thanks a lot, Ray! Observer: Ray Murray |
