20th JULY 2011
Lyme Bay up to 15nm ESE of Berry Head
Early morning 06:30ish. Strong passage of Manx Shearwaters heading south about 1.5 mile off land. Also Pomarine Skua (full spooned adult), Arctic Skua, Great Skua and Common Scoters. Further out several European Storm-petrels and a Sooty Shearwater investigated the boat while fishing.

Called Mike Langman who went to Berry Head at around 08:30 and saw more good passage from land including some Common Dolphins. See http://devonbirdnews.blogspot.com/
