Quite an interesting short seawatch , 1000's of Manxies in rafts loafing around & feeding but generally not making any effort to go anywhere .One of the rafts was breifly interupted by a passing Bonxie which appeared to take one of the Manxies or something smaller. Shortly after that another heavy Skua came through & caused some havoc in the Manx , not quite as big as the Bonxie , this was identified as a Pomarine an immature bird probably 2nd year.
Not to be outdone 5+ Risso's Dolphin came through from West to East & appeared to go into Fishguard Bay , a quick call to the Walrus & i met him at the turning circle at Harbour Village Wdig , but we couldn't locate the dolphins from there. There were though quite a few rafts of Manx in Fishguard Bay & even a few birds in the entrance to the Harbour.
