Birds!

After a rather lean spell, things changed today. I pulled up at the Sewage and it immediately became apparent that it was..."Birdy"...as they say Stateside!

I immediately picked up "a few" Gannets, some fairly close in. Then...Little Gulls, lots of them. A conservative estimate would be 200. In amongst them I picked out 3 adult Mediterranean Gulls. Then a couple of Falcons hurtled South...Hobbies! This was more like it!! Plenty of Auks on the sea also. I managed to convince myself a couple were Razorbills.

A shot in the arm for my Village Year List, boosting it up to 105. Still modest but it was encouraging and stimulating.
