A 70 minute seawatch early this morning across the bay produced 139
Common Scoter, 100's of Kittiwakes, 1 Bonxie and 3 Arctic Skuas. No
juvenile Kittiwakes passing and out of 150 roosting on Cardigan Island
only 1 juvenile. Two additional Bonxies flew close past the boat.
The small wader flock c80 was comprised of Dunlin with a few Ringed Plover. 1 Bar-headed Goose

An impressive Cetacean record today of 15/20 Common Dolphins
off the mouth of the Teifi. They were found at 830am and seen
regularly as we passed through the area until 1100 as they headed
further south west. Bottlenosed Dolphins have been present all day and
we have larger than usual numbers of Porpoise around, c10/15 in one hour
