Bird News from Nial Moores
Two hours of seawatching in fair conditions (with S/SE3 winds and 20% cloud cover) found 425 Common Tern “blogging” (but no sign of 2 White-wingeds and one Whiskered seen the day before), small numbers of shorebirds heading south (including 3 Far Eastern Curlew, a distant flock of 15 Great Knot, 9 Whimbrel and 2 Pacific Golden Plover), but only 10 or so distant Streaked Shearwater moving north.
