 A clear sunny day saw a few passerines on the move; Long Nab totals. Highlights included Raven and Velvet Scoter south, plus a Scandinavian Rock Pipit feeding by the scrape. The Great Northern Diver was still around the harbour. Rock Pipit totals today included 7 around Marine Drive/harbour, 4 at Long Nab, and 8 at Jackson's Bay. Three Stonechats at Long Nab, and 8 at Jackson's Bay. 170 Wigeon, Dunlin, 62 Redshank, 6 Purple Sandpipers, 5 Ringed Plover, 20 Magpies and a singing Chiffchaff at Scalby Mills. Jackson's Bay held 145 Oystercatchers, 9 Curlew, 83 Carrion Crows, 6 Redwing. A Merlin flew west at Flixton Carr. Lots of Goshawk action at the Raptor Viewpoint this morning.
