On the 5th day of......

2 Velvet Scoter and a Peregrine were the best we could muster passed Whitburn Obs in 2 hours this morning. Santa's festive luck has deserted us.Magic Mark was back but even he could not pull anything out of the hat on a much quieter day.
This is what we saw in order of appearance
