watching the waves

I decided to try out a new sea watch venue this am, Port Eynon. I managed to get semi sheltered spot and set up. Within 5 minutes I had my first Arctic Skua, a 1st calendar year bird passing reasonably close. It was another hour before the next appeared, another 1cy Arctic, quickly followed by a 1cy Pom, and that was it from the Skua's. Other sightings included 3 Sandwich terns, half a dozen or so Kittiwake, including a 1st winter bird I couldn't quite string into a Sab's.
