Seamonsters

With a fast moving system whizzing up the Bristol Channel we had strong West veering Northwesterly winds and some hope of a good seawatch when we left Cambridgeshire for Cornwall at midnight.  Being the tail end of July we didn't really have much likelihood of a varied watch but many thousands of Manxies off Pendeen were accompanied by good numbers of Storm Petrels and 12 Balearic Shearwaters.  This was a taster for the next 3 days of pelagic trips booked out of the Scillies.  A Birdo video of our trip will follow in time but surfice to say our hopes were fulfilled with 15 Wilson's Petrels and 9 Great Shearwaters showing from the Sapphire.
