4th July 2017

An overcast day, with light and variable winds and spells of drizzle. A seawatch from South Landing produced 44 Common Scoter, two Great Crested Grebes, one Little Egret and three Sandwich Terns moving north. An additional 33 Common Scoters and two Red-throated Divers were offshore, whilst an adult Mediterranean Gull flew east at Sewerby. Two Common Seals also lingered in the South Landing area. Thornwick Pools attracted a Common Sandpiper.
