News From The Nose.

 
When not swanning about further afield...
 
The Glonk seems to have definitely gone [wonderfully definitive language, there], but the female LT Duck is still on station. Things remain very quiet on the sea, with the diver and grebe shortage continuing.
 
On shore, slightly lower Blackcap and notably lower Chiffchaff numbers. Firecrests are about, but any wintering YB Warblers are keeping a low profile. Also, still no joy on Operation Blackstart. :(
 
Here's a possibly unwell Guillemot, close in off the Nose on Monday afternoon;

Held this pose; tail up and splashing with feet, and didn't dive in my sight.

Yikes! Underwing shot!
No sign of oiling etc.


Of course, it could just be an odd acting Guillemot. Plenty of them on the Ore Stone ledges at the moment.
 
Let's have something Spring-y;
 
Snowdrops!
 
 :)
 
A longer post to come as I have actually been out for some slightly longer-reaching exercise..! [Shock]
 
 
Be Seeing You...
