Observation details
Incredible number for mid-December. Careful estimate, initially 270 birds westbound near shore moving in, some of these birds flew back and forth working the small balls of fish brought up to the surface by many diving alcids and cormorants. More kept flying in untill at the end of the seawatch 600 BOGU were stationary on the water in a scope sweep. Biggest flock in flight: 460 birds counted in image 290565721
