Pomarine Skua

A look at the Exe Estuary this afternoon got me 6 Great Crested Grebe and 5 Red-Breasted Merganser but there was no sign of the Red-Necked Grebe or the Slavonian Grebe .
I then went to Dawlish Warren to do a sea watch and soon picked out a few Eurasian Shag , I then walked down past Langstone Cliff to view the bay between there and Dawlish and I soon picked up 2 Great Northern Diver and a bit further out was a Black-Throated Diver and it was good to see one of these in an area where I have seen them before .
But the icing on the cake today was a dark phase Pomarine Skua that slowly flew across the bay heading for Berry Head and its the first one for me for a couple of years .
