Extremely slow offshore from Fowey yesterday, just a few auks of note and no birds working, unsurprising given the easterly wind. No cetaceans which was surprising! Back out from Falmouth today.

Britain has gained a new butterfly!
The long-anticipated arrival of Southern Small White (Pieris mannii) has been confirmed.
The long-anticipated arrival of Southern Small White (Pieris mannii) has been confirmed.
From Landguard, Obsidentify says Southern Small White although this species is not on the British List yet so is the AI correct ! It has spread into the Low Countries from Southern Europe in recent years so is expected to arrive sometime.

This is absolutely superb, seawatching to a T, trying to get others on the bird, staying on it and trying to give directions at the same time (not easy trust me!) and relief when everyone sees it! Top video indeed!

Ten Little & 50 Sandwich Terns west at Selsey Bill mid-morning but the rain front didn't appear to push anything of note through the Channel. A Green Sandpiper was at Mill Lane Marsh on the way home.
