Many happy re'Terns'

2 Great Northern Divers and 2 Manxies passed Whitburn Obs  by 10.30 this morning. Magic Mark and Boy Wonder joined me for a reet canny sea watch in a light northerly wind. For the first time this year we saw three species of Tern as our first Arctic and Common Terns went north, welcome back!
