Start Point (at sea from boat)

2 Black Terns, 2 Arctic Skuas, c20 Common Terns, c15 Sandwich Terns, 3 Balearic Shearwaters, 4 Manx Shearwater, 10+ Common Scoter

While on the Manx theme. I took this interesting shot of a Manx Shearwater. Notice the brownish cast and protruding feet! May have been called something else on a seawatch! But clearly a Manx, as showing distinct white thigh notch and ear covert.
