Strumble - 0815-1515

Large feeding gatherings offshore throughout watch, involving Gannets, Kittiwakes, Manx Shearwaters, Herring and Great Black-backed Gulls, Guillemots and Razorbills and 3 Med Gulls. Must have been a lot of food out there.
A Common Tern and 11 Sandwich Terns passed through and a Bonxie spent an hour or so chasing Herring Gulls.
A group of 7 Redshanks migrating past were accompanied by a single Knot and later 2 very noisy Whimbrels passed the same way.
