actually I thought some of them were cormorants...Redman took me bird watching...couldn't identify one of the birds seen though... any recommendations for identification of seabirds tried the RSPB site and surfbirds

Seriously though it was amazing so many seabirds on a little island...and they look almost prehistoric...never really noticed the diffence between the two species until I saw them close together... juvenile puffins and some waders too.. terns and gulls and a rock pipit..grey and pied wagtails....couple of ticks very happy

once counted over 60 cormorants on a jetty in southampton water, is it normal to get that many shags at one time.

usually only small numbers but they seemed to be waiting for fish to come in on the incoming tide as they all seemed to disperse over about 15 mins once the tide came in....
