A tight & brilliant white flock of gulls sweeping about over the Trent at Garthorpe at the tail end of a squall caught my eye at 1645 today, and turned out to be Kittiwakes (all adults). I thought there were 20 in flight but the wind made it hard to count and once they landed on the Trent I could only get to 18. They drifted south upriver to within 200m of the house and as I was watching I realised that there was a female Common Scoter bobbing about in the waves close to them. The Kits moved off north at about 1730 but the scoter is still there now at 1810.
