Yes, the Surf Scoter has been showing well this morning about 200m offshore from the seafront at Blue Anchor, opposite the caravan park.
Thanks Simon, but to be fair it wasn't the most way-out of my predictions in The Bittern - just surprised that it happened quite so soon afterwards. Long overdue addition to the county list - great find by Chris G on his local patch.
Great views just before high tide this morning just off the cafe by the caravan park (which does great breakfasts!) Thanks to Brian Gibbs for pointing it out!
Yesterday a Bonxie had a go at it but it just kept diving out the way. The Skua settled on the sea about 20 feet away from the scoter after a while and then gave up and flew east.
