Bonxie at Aberystwyth

The highlight of a 90 minute seawatch from Castle Point this morning was a Great Skua making its way south.
Gannets predominated with at least 155 passing, mostly north and many close in.  Also five Manx Shearwaters north, a winter-plumaged Red-throated Diver south and a few distant Kittiwakes.
Tide well out so I could only find 11 Ringed Plovers and two Turnstones on the rocks.
