On
Long Nab 10+ Shore Larks remained in
the 2nd field north of the Obs, by the Obs was a Wheatear and past
there a Manx Shearwater, 2 Puffins, 42 Common Scoter, 16 Sandwich Terns, a 2cy
Mediterranean Gull and 212 Common Gulls. Further south at Scalby Lodge the Stile Scrub held a Willow Warbler and a Blackcap.
A
new discovery today was a Pale-bellied Brent Goose on Star Carr scrape, the
injured Dark-bellied Brent Goose was not surprisingly still on Burton Riggs and
the ♂ Garganey successfully started
its fourth week at Johnson’s Marsh with a Wigeon, 4 Teal, 2 Shelduck and a Common Snipe.
A
2cy Glaucous Gull was seen flying
south past Scalby Mills at 13.05, it continued past Marine Drive and was noted
going into the harbour having rested briefly on the roof of the Harbour View Café
at 13.11. It remained here until 13.53 when the tourist Speedboat Rib flushed
it from the middle of the inner harbour; it circled the harbour being harassed
by the local Herring Gulls before heading off in a northerly direction.
