windy but

Another good south westerly blow dragged several birders out of the woodwork for a session on Galley but unfortunately numbers of good seabirds remained low, with just 1 great shearwater, 15 sooty shearwaters, 6 bonxies, 2 arctic skuas and 5 arctic terns (109) seen from around lunchtime to 7.00 pm.  Good numbers of storm petrels were also recorded.
