The Iceland Gull was seen again near Seamer Tip, this time briefly in
flight from the bridge on Seamer Carr Road looking southwest. Observation
period this morning was about an hour and the bird was seen for about 10
seconds at about 08.40, clearly this is not an easy bird to either see or even
locate. Also in the Seamer Tip area we had 10 Pink-footed Geese, a Barnacle
Goose and 2 Grey Partridges.
At Scalby Mills there were 10
Ringed Plover, a Mediterranean Gull and offshore 2 Common Scoter went south, in
South Bay today there was no sign of the Velvet Scoter but a Common Scoter was
seen off The Spa.
At Brompton-by-Sawdon still 6 Hawfinches present around the
churchyard but no news today on the Ring
Ouzel and at Wykeham Raptor View Point at least 8 Goshawks were observed
displaying and there was also a female Merlin reported today.
