Finally....In Cumbria

Well Finally something good for Cumbria. Checked Soddy gap and Low Meadows but very quiet nothing new but the usual ducks n Geese.
So moved straight onto Workington for a seawatch and good to see Keith there too. After watching 50+ Gannets and 50+ Manxies moving i spotted 2 Darkish Terns and manage to get enough on them to Identify them as 2 Juvenile Black Terns as they moved South out the Solway on the dropping tide. A movement of Swallows and a couple of Waders, Dunlin, Ringed Plover and Curlew. Finally 4 Wheaters on the fence.

This afternoon Rach n I walked the dog around St bees.
12 Common Whitethroat, 2 Chiffchaff, 12 Tree Sparrow mixed flock of 150 Goldfinch and Linnet, 1 Wheatear, 2 Raven all the Auks had gone and a single Kestrel.
