Hi Cliff



Not a lot of cetacean activity that I spotted though the sea state wasn’t conducive
to seeing fins in the water at distance. Maybe sea state 3 or touching 4 off
St David’s Head.



07:40 one porpoise 100 meters off the Northern breakwater



09:15 two common dolphin joined us for a minute or two , about 2km west of Penbwchdy 2 km
      north of Ynys Deullyn  (Abercastle)



11:00 six to eight porpoise feeding in the turbulent water on the south and to the west
      side of Ramey Sound



After entering St Brides Bay through Jack Sound  on to St Anne’s Head and to Milford no
sightings at all



A lot of bird activity, auks, shearwaters and gannets feeding to the north of Porthgain and down to the North of St David’s Head,  though was too far away for any cetacean sightings.
After Ramsey Sound very little in terms of bird activity/feeding. All the action was to the North.



All the best



Stephen
