And that despite fairly good weather. Sunday looked like it was going to mirror Saturday, but a single Kittiwake flew by in the afternoon, and a single Herring Gull turned up late in the day.Today has been better. A small (11) group of GBBGs greeted me before sun up. Half a dozen Herring Gulls were also present, and later in the morning we had two Kittiwake. Slim pickings, but gratefully received.The NSBC annual report for 2015 has now been mailed out. It'll be over a week before I can get home to read mine, but I noticed in the photo that accompanied the mail out announcement on Facebook, that the first ever Little Egret has been reported offshore.</blockquote>
