This morning I drove up to Cresswell with no plan and that was as far as I got!
After an hour or so it started raining and when that stopped, the wind started to get a bit blowy.
At Cresswell the Bonxie was still around. It’s spent the week dining on Coot!
a Grey Heron showed nicely in front of the hide
A phone call to Andy from Alan revealed a Pectoral Sandpiper back down the road at Lynemouth Flash, so we had a quick look at that. It was too far off for pictures though. I go back to Cresswell and try to find an interesting wader that Alan had with some Dunlin. It went AWOL before he had a good look at it!
I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary, so I gave the beach a try, just in case…
Plenty of Gannets
and at least 14 Red-throated Divers
and the Red Arrows (for the 2nd time today). The display was at the finish line of the Great North Run. I was standing nearly 19 miles from there!
But nothing unusual at all!
