The Mediterranean Gull was again flying and calling around the Eastfield/Pindar area, a Red Kite flew south over Crossgates, and a Grasshopper Warbler was singing at Deepdale, just north of Eastfield. 5 House Martins flew south past Scarborough College. This evening a male Wheatear and a Chiffchaff were behind the wall on Marine Drive, and on the north side of the Castle Hill there were 6+ Willow Warblers, 2 Chiffchaffs and 4 Blackcaps.

Please could you tell me where Scalby Lodge pond is? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteFootpath opp Scalby Manor caravan park to hide. Large pond now dry but small reed fringed pond along track running towards cottages.
