Newquay to Bird Rock

Highlights included a peregrine, several whitethroat, chough, a pair of stonechat plus a single male, 3 swallows, one wheatear, and linnets, plus of course fulmar, razorbill, guillemot, and kittiwake. At bird rock, a little egret flew past which was an unexpected sight.

Other wildlife sightings included 3 dolphins, 3 grey seals, plus a common lizard, speckled wood, peacock and red admiral butterflies. The aroma and colour of the gorse was a fantastic back-drop.
