        Bits in the earlier stages of the dropping tide including flock of 12 Arctic Tern towering over the harbour heading NE and a dark morph Arctic Skua similarly but high over HeySham Head…..along with two frustratingly distant auks which looked like Puffin but obviously not claiming such. Dead after 0650 as everything had presumably been flushed out of the bay by the dropping tide and nothing obvious inbound
