NORTH RONALDSAY - 11th April


A strong SE wind made things difficult but it remained dry and bright; the highlight of the northern census route was the first Manx Shearwater of the year past the seawatch hide with 6 Puffins, 5 Lesser Black-backed Gulls, a few Pipits coming in off and a Merlin far out at sea.   Other birds of note comprised 2 Black Redstarts including an adult male, 14 Wheatears, a Chiffchaff, 16 Robins, 30 Redwings and still a female Goldeneye on Bewan.
