Late seabirds

1st December 2011 – sunny spells W4/5
Rarities
The Water Pipit again showed well in the flooded fields and horse paddocks near Biggar. View only from the road and keep out of the private fields.
Offshore
Heavy overnight rain and gales initiated a quick seawatch off the western shore (0830-0930) which produced a late Arctic Skua and Gannet amongst 160 Kittiwake, 14 Razorbill, 10 Common Scoter, 4 Shag, 4 Red-throated Diver and 2 Guillemot.
