Some sea watching was done at Lavernock Pt this morning. Earlier arrivals than me had plenty of Kittiwake [still passing in small nos. the I arrived at 11:40] and a couple of Bonxies. Luckily for me a Pom Skua was sitting on the water when I arrived – thanks to the lads for putting me on to it. It drifted d/c then flew up again when I had nice views in the scope – it was a pale phase bird. Also around 20 Common Gull were sitting on the water and others flying by,. Apparently 3 Skua sp were seen from Cardiff Bay [presumably the barrage] – Bonxie, Arctic and Pom – by Peter Howlett.

The pale morph Pom I had went past heading towards Lavernock at 08:45
Cheers Peter. Acc to Gareth Stamp who had been at Lavernock from fairly early, the pale Pom kept going up & down so prob the same bird. It drifted down on the tide then flew up again and so on. My post shd of course have read 3 Skua sp. Will correct now. 🙂
