they think its all over..........

560 Pinkfeet, 9 Whoopers and a Great northern Diver went south past Whitburn by 10am. It was just me and Pink Floyd in the Obs today, he beat me in i wonder if he slept in the Obs. The fair weather sea watchers have left till next year thinking all the action was over but as you can see it was a canny watch.This is what we saw in order of appearance
