2 Tawny Owl were calling early this morning outside my girlfriends house in Brixham .
After a nice cooked breakfast I decided to go for a sea watch off of Berry Head ,
as I arrived another birder was coming away & I asked him what he had seen & he said that he had seen some distant shearwaters .
So I settled in for my sea watch in hope of seeing some ! but for the first hour all I saw were about 30+ NORTHERN GANNET , some SANDWICH TERN & an ARCTIC TERN .
But then I had a superb Adult light phase POMARINE SKUA that driffted by about half way out so I got good views of it spoons & all .
Then a 1st winter LITTLE GULL flew right in front of me & around the headland & there were about a dozen GREAT BLACK BACKED GULL in the area , the sea watch finished off with a light phase ARCTIC SKUA but not one shearwater was seen ! oh well there is always next time .
On the land it was dead with only 6 STONECHAT , 2 RAVEN , a Female KESTREL & a BUZZARD seen .
