Today’s seawatch was enlivened by a Merlin heading north and a single Great Skua south, otherwise its was pretty standard fare which included 17 Red-throated Divers south with 2 north and 6 Pinkfeet south. Elsewhere the two Stonechats remained at Thornwick Pool where there were also 16 Reed Buntings, 32 Linnets and a Barn Owl. Owls were also represented at Whelkie Wynds (Millenium Wood) where there were two Tawnies. Bempton held a flock of 30 Tree Sparrows.
Adjacent to Bempton is the area between Buckton village and the sea, accessed via Hoddy Cows Lane, head over to the interactive map and check out the newly added site guide for details of this hotspot.
