Back in July I was in Cornwall and was did quite a few mornings on Trevose Head trying to seawatch for skuas and rarer shearwaters. The winds were fairly decent, and on some days I had some fairly ludicrous numbers of manxes, but didn't really pick out much at the time, despite them definitely being around.
However, having gone back to them after finally catching up with a solid skua in Kent last week, I went back with fresh eyes and picked out a few that I thought were probably worth a look at.
Apologies for the rubbish photos and thanks in advance for any help!
1+2 - Arctic Skua?
3 - Rear bird - larger and longer winged than the manx? Anything interesting?
4 - Left bird - bit of an odd angle, but seemed interesting?
