Strumble - another Honey Buzzard

There was a spectacular feeding frenzy this morning lasting over half an hour and involving several hundred Gannets and several thousand Manx Shearwaters. A group of about fifty House Martins flew excitedly around the headland, joined by a couple of Sand Martins and small numbers of Swallows; obviously birds on the move rather than locals. The high point of the watch was a Honey Buzzard, the second of the season. Five Common Scoter (one female), a Curlew and a Whimbrel were also recorded as was a Sunfish.

Late entry from yesterday evening: three Dunlin on Newgale Beach feeding on the edge of the incoming tide, close to a flock of about thirty Black-headed Gulls feeding in the surf on what appeared to be fry.
