Fun On The Beach

Just as I was about to leave the Walters Mound at BHM yesterday, I got a text from Steve Waite saying a large flock of Pale-bellied Brents were heading West from Lyme Regis. I knew I had to move fast though it was not so much a case of 'pedal to the metal' as simply pedal and pedal on my pushbike. As I clambered off it at Seaton seafront I could see the flock beyond the mouth of the Axe! I frantically grabbed my scope and had terrific views of at least 40! I then enjoyed a seawatch of 100 Manxes, a probable Balearic ( early one! ), Dunlin flocks and Med Gull (adult). Cheers Steve, a nice end to the day for me...
