[QUOTE="Paul Troake, post: 1330707, member: 62348"] One [B]little auk[/B] today at Rusheen Bay - flew right past me along the edge of the bay at the north side of the drumlin next to Silver Strand, heading in to a strong south-westerly towards the beach, late morning. One for the county year list? Does anyone know how many records there are for the county? Also a [B]petrel [/B]offshore, probably storm, though never showing for long before settling. Otherwise pretty quiet offshore - a few [B]kittis [/B]heading west distantly, a few [B]razor/guillies[/B], one [B]gannet[/B]... Also 4 [B]little egrets[/B] in the bay plus one [B]Sandwich tern[/B], 18 [B]greenshanks[/B] & 45 [B]brents[/B]. One [B]purple sandpiper[/B] in flight west of Black Rock. At Claddagh, a 1st-w [B]Med gull[/B] was feeding amongst a flock of bhgs at the base of the Mutton causeway and the wader roost on the fields included 170 [B]ringed plover[/B] and 109 [B]dunlin[/B]. Yesterday there were 5 [B]common scoter[/B] offshore and a [B]pintail [/B]flew west. Troakie [/QUOTE]
