The seafood buffet to the east of Lundy continued to draw in punters, including 216 Razorbills, 264 unidentified Auks, and 56 Kittiwakes. The stars of the show were the gulls, with 168 Herring Gull, 59 Great Black Backed Gull, 12 Lesser Black Backed Gull, 13 Black-headed Gull and 6 Common Gull present. 4 Yellow-browed Warblers called the island home for the day, one in Millcombe, and three further along the east coast. 358 Redwing, 5 Fieldfare and a single Ring Ouzel also paid a visit. Beyond Quarter Wall, the first Hen Harrier of the year was seen, along with a large flock of 44 Snow Buntings. 3 Merlin, 3 Peregrine and 2 Kestrel shared the now crowded airspace.
The prolonged spell of calm weather produced excellent conditions for spotting cetaceans. 9 Harbour Porpoise were seen off Rat Island, South-west Point and North Light. Yesterday 13 Common Dolphins were feeding to the west, and earlier, on October 27th, 8 Bottlenose Dolphins lingered playfully in the same area.
