Sandilands 06:40 to 12:30--tedious indeed---not really bothered if the box next to Great Shearwater on my Lincs List stays empty following what should have been a guaranteed day----Lincs is just not a good coast for watching seabirds!---haze, large swell, looking into the sun, dog walkers everywhere no chance of a bird landing on the beach--- 1 yes 1 Manx Shearwater and that was far out 2 juv Long-tailed Skua north 12 Arctic Skua north and offshore 5 Little Gulls north 7 Red-throated Diver 14 Common Scoter I Shag north 30 Pintail north 2 juv Med Gulls north 1 Razorbill 7 Guillemot and other auks 60+ Common Terns 7 Arctic Terns 70+ Sandwich Terns |
