I started the day up Seaford Head as there was no wind. All I could find were two Wheatears, a flyover Yellow Wagtail and a new Garden Warbler in.
After the school run, I set up down Splash alongside Richard who had started at 05.30, and we held on until 18.00 although there was little to show for the efforts, although a ridiculously 'spooned' Pom went through early afternoon.
Totals as follows:
Common Scoter - 60
Sandwich Tern - 60
Arctic Tern - 22
Common/Arctic Tern - 219
Whimbrel - 38
Bar-tailed Godwit - 37
Little Tern - 17
Black Tern - 2
Grey Plover - 1
Red-throated Diver - 5
Arctic Skua - 5
Pomarine Skua - 2 (10.47 & 13.47)
Gadwall - 1
Sanderling - 8
Black-throated Diver - 1
Great Skua - 1
