May13th

Thousands of puffins past Crail today. This is the daily passage to and from the May Island but it usually happens much further out. The winds have continued to bring the seabirds close in – guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes and of course the gannets which loom large even without a telescope. There were a few manx shearwaters feeding off Crail in the evening as well.
