I missed Mike's Macaronesian Shearwater (see below) by 7 minutes!!! But could not have been found by a more deserving seawatcher - well done. This one's been along time coming as a Berry Head (or Devon) seawatched bird.
We hoped it might come back around for a second showing given the strong winds and rain, but alas it was not to be.
