28th April, 2018 Beachy Head Overcast with sea-mist. WNW 4

Arrived at Birling to poor visibility with sea-mist. We sea-watched from 06.15-07.45 but unfortunately I then had to pack up due to bad side-effects from my chemo. treatment. A good movement of Gannets with 7 Manx Shearwaters but again very few terns seen although with a WNW wind that wasn't surprising.

Manx Shearwater 7 (3 E and 4 W)
Gannet 203 E
Brent Goose 22 E
Common Scoter 58 E
Whimbrel 2
Bonxie 1 E
Sandwich Tern 2 E
Commic Tern 1 E

Roger and Liz had an Osprey E late afternoon.
