Tuesday 11th November

Seawatching early morning initially was a washout with only 10 Kittiwake passing in the first two hours. However by 11am two each of Pomarine and Great Skua had flown south as well as a Short-eared Owl which eventually came in off over the Dune Ridge. Also offshore the three Velvet Scoter and two Great Northern Diver. Elsewhere a Sandwich Tern was off John's Watch and counts from the estuary included 56 Grey and 35 Ringed Plover, 20 Sanderling and six Knot.
