The by now customary culprits
were still at Brompton-by-Sawdon but the Ring
Ouzel was proving difficult for some and the Hawfinches of which there were 7+ were appearing rather
infrequently.
In Langdale Forest today we
had a Goshawk, 2 Stonechats at May Moss and 31 Common Crossbills but not even a
sniff of a Great Grey Shrike yet this winter; Potter Brompton Carr had c1100
Lapwings, 140+ Wigeon, 2 Shoveler and a Shelduck and at Hackness Lake there
were 7+ Mandarin Ducks.
Seamer Tip pool had a Shelduck
and 6 Gadwall; Burton Riggs 2 Pink-footed Geese and 2 Oystercatchers; Scalby
Mills 460 Wigeon and there was a Blackcap in Falsgrave Park.
