Hi John,

2 nice captures John. Well done.

Thanks to all - much appreciated:)
I tried for a few shots with the sea spray splashing over the bird but I didn't get the focus spot on..

If you're ever up this way (bit of a trek from Wales!) there's a few of them not far from the house all year round:)
