Tiring of bird-free seas at Borth I decided to head south and was at Mwnt this morning from 8am to 12pm. A very nice variety of birds was passing, though not in large numbers with the highlights being 1 balearic shearwater, 2 sooty shearwaters, 11 great skuas, 4 arctic skuas and an adult roseate tern. All were heading south. If the winds pick up again, I might have another go there on Sunday.
On the way back north I stopped briefly at Llanon where there were 252 mediterranean gulls, which I spent fifteen minutes ageing (the gulls, not myself though I suppose I did too) but I won't bore you with the figures.
