All at Sea


Went out in my neighbour's small boat from Saundersfoot this morning. Unfortunately the sea was pretty choppy and we failed to find the Scoter flock which is normally off Amroth. We did see 6 Red Breasted Mergansers and 20+ Divers but with the low sun in our eyes could not pin down the species. Several winter plumage Guillemots were seen and, on the cliffs between Monkstone Point and Tenby, there were c.30 Cormorants & 50+ Fulmars.
