Post subject:  Skeg Sea Watch x2

Managed a couple of hours of both am and pm sea watches from Skegness today in a F6/7 E/SE wind.

Highlight was a juvenile Sabine's Gull close in heading south at 1530. Watched for about 20 seconds when it landed on the sea some 150m from shore and was lost to view in the big swell.

Other birds seen were
Bonxie 2N
Velvet Scoter 4S
Common Scoter 3S
GC Grebe 1 on sea
Kittiwake 4S
Goldeneye 1S
RT Diver 9
Guillemot 6N
Auk sp 4
Eider 4S
Wigeon 14S
Teal 12S

PDQ apart from the Sabine's considering the wind and visibility was poor throughout

Regards

Nige
