Thurlestone Bay

On Thursday made 2 attempts to do some sea watching - only picked up  around 200 Gannet, 17 Kittiwake,
2 Manx Shearwater, 3 Fulmar- main problem was the very poor viz ( c250 yds ) and no shelter , scope unusable.

This morning dry conditions but very few birds , however at 09.10 a Storm Petrel came into the Bay and fed offshore less than 50 yds away.
