Cornwall (Day 1)

Arrived with the family early morning at the scenic location of Morrison’s carpark, Marazion, to take in the juvenile Rose-coloured Starling which was seen, albeit briefly, after twenty minutes or so. Then on to Porthgwara where after taking breakfast at the cafe, we walked to the Minack Theatre along the coast, cutting in to St. Levan, and then back to Porthgwara and up to the watch. A pleasant walk; not a great deal of Passerine activity, but a Merlin and Peregrine were seen.

 

I then took the family back to our base at Mousehole, and I walked Lamorna Cove. Unfortuantely the rain came down very heavily and I saw very little.
