Stormies

I went down to Dawlish Warren this morning in horrible rain to look for a Storm Petrel and I managed to see four of them ! a couple were quite far out but two were in much closer & on one of them you could see the white rump & the white underwing bar quite well !  , also seen was a 1st summer Mediterranean Gull , a dark phase Arctic Skua , 6 Sanderling , 2 Whitethroat , a Cuckoo & a Yellow Wagtail that was on the beach in the bite & a plus was not getting the gear to wet !!!!
