Oct 13: thousands of Gannets

The Northern Gannet passage was good for most of the day, with close to 1,000/h. Common Scoters were also on the move in huge numbers, with 190/h all through the day. A few skuas were watched, most of them during the first hours of the morning and just before the rain forced us to leave the observation point in the afternoon: 40 Bonxies, 6 Poms and 12 Arctic. There were still a few flocks of Razorbill, totalling 21 birds. And again not many Shearwaters, the most numerous Sooty with only 85 watched in 4,45 hs.

Observers: Antonio Sandoval, Ricardo Hevia, Antonio Martínez Pernas
