The Grind


Another week, another set of reports from the Nose. Plús ça change and all that.


Brixham Trawler

Something different to start with.  :)

In a fit of madness dedication on Friday I went straight to the Nose from work [no, no overtime or getting important stuff done for this little black duck..].

I even took the li'l scope with me [though not a tripod, worrying about weight on injured shoulders..] and found a sheltered spot [Glonk corner] to sit down and stare at what came by for an hour.
It being a sunny windy day [wind fresh to brisk for S to SSE] that was... Well, not a lot.

Itsa Herring Gull

Best thing in the air beat the camera, though;  Spitfire!!
 
Otherwise;
Gannets 25
BHG 2
LBB 2
YLG 1 [N, from far side of Lead Stone, the git..]
C Scoter 3 [N]

Wooo, right?

Kestrel

Buzzard

All the low-flying raptors may explain the 6 Chiffchaff and 2 Blackcap being the sum total of possibly migrating passerines on site.

Also of note [and too slow to avoid photography..]

Painted Lady

A few Oystercatchers


It was worth a go, though. Don't see if you don't try. Got to put the hours in.

Ahem.


Be Seeing You...
