We sea-watched from 08.00-0935 and RAB joined us and he did an additional sea-watch from 10.45-11.15. We also walked the Birling loop but by this time the wind had increased and we saw very little. Another decent passage of Auks with better numbers of Divers which included 2 more Black-throated Divers.
