2 Sunfish showed very well off Deep Point
A cracking two hour seawatch with Martin off Deep Point this evening. With in ten minutes of arriving, a Cory's Shearwater went west followed by more birds later. Two Cory's spent a long period of time feeding with over 50 Common Dolphins. While watching the dolphins jumping out of the water and hunting for prey , I picked up a stunning adult Pomarine Skua (with spoons) at very close range, following in line with a Puffin. At the same time, just below where we were, there were our first 2 Sunfish of the year.
TOTALS OF BIRDS- 19.15-21.15 (F2-3 W)
1 POMARINE SKUA
8 CORY'S SHEARWATER
1 PUFFIN
100+ MANX SHEARWATER
100+ GANNET
2 SUNFISH
50+ COMMON DOLPHIN

A week later Martin caught this amazing shot of an Ocean Sunfish jumping out of the water!
