Well two days could hardly be more different. If yesterday's conditions were near perfect today's were borderline abysmal. With XC Weather app saying wall to wall sunshine all we had was solid cloud for the whole day. I've left the first image as it came out of the camera to show how dreary it was. Needless to say the images are not to my usual standard but one saving grace was a marked porpoise so at least I came away happy for that at least.
Joined again by Harry we watched as the porpoise began to move in on the ebb flow. Mostly distant at first but with some coming closer as the tide race got underway. That one marked porpoise was foraging in front of us for well over an hour, moving around and frequently catching my attention. Eventually it moved off and I was able to concentrate on other animals which were now feeding in the tide stream. Although also distant for all of the session there were a good number of Commons around mostly foraging off to the NW with some coming in off the lighthouse so I was able to get a few shots of them.
A good indicator for the average size of Porpoise. The Buoy is approx 12 inches/30cm in diameter.
