Skomer Skuas

A few hours seawatching at the Garland Stone today resulted in some great birds. Totals will be uploaded onto our recent sightings page later this evening but highlights were 4 Pomarine, 2 Arctic, 2 Long-tailed and 7 Great Skuas. Also a Leach's Petrel watched for a small amount of time before being taken by a Peregrine! No sign of the Radde's Warbler today though, but not exactly surprising in this wind.
