Hi Cliff,
At Porthgain Beacon today around midday.
Saw a solitory porp on the flood tide swimming north easterly along the coast about 300 - 400 m out .
Sea condition was quite choppy with a NNW wind force 4 gusting 5.
Friday 11th Strumble Head for an hour around 1pm.
4 - 5 Porps seen in the ebbing tide race. 2 seen swimming together.
Fairly choppy sea, NW wind force 3/4.
Had great close up views in the telescope of one porp surfacing regulary around a small group of gulls who were dip feeding. Good number of gannets around but none seen diving.
Hwyl.
Hi Phil,
really nice bit of coverage, thanks!
Cristina and I were at Strumble today at around 15.00 with a really active tide race, but a straong N Westerly really ripping things up. none the less about twenty gannets wqere feedingf and several porps. difficulty/impossible to count but plenty of activity!
