Oct 12: first flocks of Razorbills

The first flocks of Razorbills Were watched today during the evening. The total number of them was 32 birds, far from the passage watched from cabo Ajo (Cantabria) at the same time. Many species were seen, but all of them in little numbers. Only 2 Cory’s in 4 hs (it's quite scarce this month!). Regarding skuas, 46 Bonxies, 1 juv. Long-tailed and 4 Arctic. A Common Gull (not a common species in Spain) was a nice sight, as well as a late Black Tern. Only 29 Scoters were counted, and the Sooties passage was bellow 70/h.
