Firstly, Happy Xmas to one and all from everyone at Flamborough Bird Observatory!
A seasonal seawatch proved rewarding with a Velvet Scoter flying north, a second calendar-year Mediterranean Gull and a Little Auk moving south along with 11 ‘northern’ Herring Gulls. Away from the sea, a Water Rail was along Bempton Lane early morning, a flock of 70 Lapwing overflew Thornwick Lakes and 60 Fieldfare were near Buckton Hall.
