The shame was I had a little night vision camera in the bag and forgot!!!
Bad shot I know! but what do you think?
For viewing or photography right place right time is everything. I'd rather be in the right place with poor kit than have the best kit and be in the wrong place.
Looks like a Puffin Burrow John

If its no fun Yer no doin it right!
There is a long grey ish beak just popping out of the darkness, rounded off slightly broad tip. Oh how I wish I'd remembered the night camera was with me, FOOL!!
I wasn't even sure whether it was an animal or a bird until you said.
I'm guessing it might be an eider duck.

At this time they only come out at night!
On first sight, I thought it was a hedgehog.

I see your thinking, but you know me it is a Birdie!
My second guess is a manx shearwater.

according to my book, an old rabbit burrow is a good nest site for Shelduck. could be one of those maybe ??
Camera always at the ready!!
