All the action today came from
Long Nab where observers were present for most of the day from 07.45 – 16.45.
The highlights of the day were the first March record of Sooty Shearwater which
went south at 10.08, a 1st winter Glaucous Gull feeding in the surf
about 200 metres north of the Obs and present for about 50 minutes before
moving off and 3 Little Gulls (2 heading south one of which lingered for over
an hour and 1 N). Also from here during the morning a blue phase Fulmar went
north and an Eider, 2 Common Scoter, 42 Shags, 352 Kittiwakes and a Puffin all moved south.
The only other news today came
from Scalby Lodge Pond where there were 71 Wigeon, a Shelduck and a Dunlin.
