Seawatch Hotspot

An afternoon visit to Gwents seawatching hotspot(Goldcliff Point) didn't muster up a lot at first.3 Commic terns were the highlight.Started to head back home and a bit of news filtered through that a few Stormie's were being seen further down channel close inshore.As i was only down the lane the decision was made to head back up to the cliff.Had another hour peering out into the murky waters to be greeted by 1 Storm Petrel 12 Manx Shearwaters 2 fulmars and a Gannet.Note to myslef must check closer in at regular intervals as the Stormie flew quite close in.Everything else was as usual mid channel.There is nothing like an afternoon at this seawatching hotspot.
