As the stormy winds blew, a sea watch at Branksome proved fruitful with c50 Red-throated Diver most passing west, also 7-8 Great Northern Diver, 1 Black-throated Diver, c10 Gannet, 5 Common Scoter, 3 Fulmar, c20 Brent Geese, 3 Med Gulls, 1 Shelduck and plenty of auks (looked most to be Razorbill). Only other news from a blowy wet day was the Lesser Yellowlegs was on Lytchett Fields and the Kingfishers in Poole Park continue to impress.
