Porp's, Auks and Divers!

We decided to go on to Strumble as the sea conditions were so good and do a click count. Although the porpoises were not too close we managed to record quite a few sightings which gave an average of 29.25 for the hour which is pretty good for the time of the year. Better still we had a beautiful mother and small calf!

There were also at least a dozen winter plumage Red Throated Divers floating by on the tide, along with whirring strings of auks constantly passing by, some of the strings consisting of 100+ birds
