A delayed blog from yesterdays session.
I arrived at the lookout with several birders in attendance so a quick chat ensued only to be told I had missed a group of close in Rissos by about ten minutes. A dissapointment then untill one of them shouted "They're up again". A quick unzip of my camera bag and eyes to the water to spot them. "Found them" A bit off to the NE and still within camera range so I got what I could before they headed east toward Fishguard Bay. A group of seven to eight but hard to say really. Later one of the birders spotted a further three well out plus Adrian spotted two more. I spotted a very large Risso coming in from the West in very large swells but didn't see it again. So a possible fourteen in all. I waited well into the dropping tide in hopes that they would come back with it but no luck.
As the light faded away I left hoping for better luck the next day 04/11. As I write this post I can report:- Spent five hours there and only saw 5 porpoise all at distance and no Rissos.
