I went to Ynyslas this morning, arriving at the Turn Car Park at about 6:35. When I arrived Manx shearwaters were already streaming past, heading north. I watched for about an hour and during that time I reckon they passed at a rate of between 500 - 600 per minute. There were also several rafts of 250 - 300 birds. That's an awful lot of Manxies!
There were also c200 Gannets, c30 Sandwich terns, 7 Ringed plover, 1 Common scoter and 1 Arctic skua.
