Fly Flatts

Plenty Mipits still carrying food

A mottled sky

Only 4 LBBs this morning

A good year for Common Sandpipers

Fly Flatts 0630-0930hrs Hot and Sunny. yuk !

A good morning if you were on the beach at Scarborough but no good for Fly Flatts. Even at 0630hrs when I arrived the sun was blinding hot but at least I bet the public and wind surfers.
Did a thorough check of the area but the Greenshank had moved overnight taking advantage of the clear sky.
A Ringed Plover looked new in and it was good to see 2 seperate Wheatear each with one juv.
Ten minutes after Id left DCB gave me a call to alert me on a Common Tern coming over the nab towards Fly, thanks for that Dave, typical that Id just gone, moaning how quiet the skies were.
