With a 5 to 7 north easterly I was hopeful for some interesting birds but it was pretty quiet this morning between 9 and 11.

Only 1 gannet and 10 kittiwakes past in 2 hours, no auks at all. Hundreds of common and herring gulls, 1 bonxie, 2 eider, 2 cormorants south, 3 red throated divers and 2 wigeon north. Still over 1000 common scoter on the sea, 2 ringed plover, 1 bartailed godwit, 2 sanderling and 1 turnstone on the beach.

The rarest things I saw were Tony Housman and Terry West, hadn't seen them for ages!
