Arctic Skua and a Bonxie passed Whitburn Obs by 10.30 this morning. I waited in the car for a while this morning before braving the conditions to walk to the Obs in the rain, so it was a late start. Magic Mark did the brolly walk with me and later Saint Mark. Bomb the Bass were right its like winter in July.
