Todays RSPB Skua & Shearwater cruise resulted in two highlights.
Firstly getting 3 x Sooty Shearwaters Puffinus griseus, all of which gave really good views while on the water.
Secondly getting a "blue" Northern Fulmar. Fulmarus glacialis glacialis
Blue is actually grey and describes a northerly breeding bird from Arctic waters which is far more common further north.
