A moderate south-westerly later switched into a south-easterly, whilst conditions remained overcast throughout. A Black-throated Diver flew south during the morning’s seawatch, with two Great Northern Divers heading north and 45 Red-throated Divers in residence. A Blue Fulmar flew south, whilst 319 Shag left the roost. A Velvet Scoter went south, two Pomarine Skuas moved north and another went south.
