Monday 11th April

A cream crowned Marsh Harrier passed slowly south at Long Nab this morning having approached from the west. A Yellow Wagtail, Grey Plover and drake Goosander flew north there and a single Dunlin flew south. Two Northern Wheatears were noted at South Cliff, with further singles noted at Gristhorpe Bay and Sneaton Low Moor. A Great Northern Diver was in the inner harbour this morning and a Firecrest was seen in Broxa Forest. Just four Eurasian Wigeon remained at Scalby Mills this afternoon and six Gannets and four Fulmars were noted at Cloughton Wyke.
