    Thanks for that, I thought the right bird looks to fat for a Cormorant and the left one to thin for a Cormorant or a shag, but there were reports of a Great Northern diver around there today.always an optimist.

  11. Tern,

    Tern,

    Anybody which Tern this is, I know very poor photo, huge crop, on the Camel estuary Padstow, Cornwall today. There were half a dozen fishing, they were diving vertically from maybe twenty to twenty five feet, good to watch.

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'Sea birds, but which sort?'

    Thanks, I thought when I first saw them there was something different about them, just the way they flew and skimmed the surface, I am probably wrong and you are right, but I thought it worth the question.
  13. Sea birds, but which sort?

    Sea birds, but which sort?

    These two birds were bugging me today, just could not be sure what they were, very slow wing beats and they kept skimming the sea in the same area but not landing, this was off Porth Joke in Cornwall this afternoon. Any ideas gratefully accepted.thanks.
