11th October

Although the seawatching was quite slow, there was slightly more happening than there was on the land. Numbers of the common species were low, but 5 Grey Phalaropes and a Little Auk were recorded passing by Dennis Head and 21 Red-breasted Mergansers were dotted around the coast. The only landbirds worth mentioning were 196 lingering Redwings and 16 Fieldfares.
