Strumble Diary 03/05/2026

 Well this morning felt more March than May. A chill NW'ly wind was rattling around the lookout. It did however mean large swells running against the tide, which is my favourite conditions for shooting porpoise. To catch the tide today did mean a 7.30am start and almost straight away I was sighting Porps out in the tide race. They were all distant though and I'm still very much missing my big 800mm lens which is in Glasgow being repaired, but hopefully back in my hands in the next couple of weeks. No dolphin sightings today but lots of bird movement with hundreds of Manx Sheerwater, good numbers of kittywakes and the usual skanes of Gannets. By 08.30 the action had died away and I finished my session at 09.00.
