A weeks holiday based in Looe, whilst not a birding break, did allow some time for a spot of photography mainly in the late afternoon. A short visit to Rame Head and I had brief views of Cirl Bunting, and this Stonechat.

Hannafore Point was only a 10 minute walk from where we were staying and held some Waders and other birds, including a couple of distant Gannets. Part 2 of this blog will cover the waders but lets start with some of the others including a Grey Heron that would sometimes come down to the rocks.

There were also a few of the closely related, and slightly smaller Shags.
