Wildlife Adventure Passengers 12/06/13 14:00 - The Harbour Porpoise were continuing to show well in the afternoons trip with small groups surfacing close by. A White-Tailed Eagle seen perched in one of his usual vantage points always busy viewing for prey and territory intruders along with preening his feathers which need to be in pristine condition for hunting. Gannet numbers are increasing and a Great Skua was seen powering through the moderate winds. Also Kittiwakes, Puffins, Guillemots and Seals bottling in the open sea.
