The
biggest shock of the year so far concerned a Leach’s Petrel seen flying north past Scalby Mills at 12.14 pm by a
very fortunate Micky McNaghten. At the same location a drake Eider was seen
flying south and might have gone down in North Bay where there were a Razorbill
and 3 Shags.
On
Royal Albert Drive the 2 Black Redstarts were seen again on the sea defences
opposite the old Café and on Castle Headland 14 pairs of Fulmars had returned
to the cliffs.
In
the Harbour the 2 Great Northern Divers
were seen again along with a Black-necked
Grebe and there were 5 Common Scoter
in South Bay.
An
adult Mediterranean Gull was seen in the field east of Seamer Tip pool and at
Wykeham South Lake early morning there were 6 Whooper Swans (2 adults, 4
juveniles), 24 Mute Swans and 23 Pochards.
Finally
today the Shore Larks were seen again but this time only 4 in the 2nd
field south of Crook Ness.
