Plenty of duck and geese action at Long Nab Observatory today, with the welcome help of @longnabbirder.bsky.social Alas a few minutes late for the black scoter due to nearby YBW 😥. Sooty shearwater and a lifer pomarine skua though 😊. #birds #ukbirding @nybirdnews.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social

Few more of the Polish yellow-ringed P:Y4A Caspian gull at Scarborough’s Scalby Mills, lunchtime today. Thanks to Chris Bell & @sidwemn.bsky.social for ringer details too. Smart bird. @nybirdnews.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social @birdguides.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social #birds #ukbirding

Lovely surprise on our first Winter Bird Survey visit to one of our @btobirds.bsky.social tetrads at Seaton Ross today. Turned a field corner to find 11 Whoopers feeding in stubble. Managed to walk around without disturbing which was pleasing.

Abandoned pink foot, Scaling Dam
Only one remaining this morning, after large influx yesterday. Also lingering juvenile whooper swan. Overcast but clearing slightly. Relatively quiet, redwing calling. @teesbirds.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social #birds #ukbirding

After a lesson picking one out with @longnabbirder.bsky.social at Long Nab this AM, a surprise to get my first self-find 13:30 Polish ring P4YA. Thanks to Scarborough birders for research whilst I was in the field 🤣 @northyorksbirds.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social

Snow bunting, Scarborough harbour.
Couldn’t resist a visit to see our Arctic visitor, after my sea watch today. Third day here; hope the kestrels don’t get wind of it. @nybirdnews.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social #birds #ukbirding

A dull uninspiring sort of day up on the moors and not much moving. A few Common buzzards sitting around and a Red kite brightened things up a bit @teesbirds.bsky.social @teeswildlife.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social @northyorksbirds.bsky.social #birds

Just a handful of Greylags on Scaling as I arrived this morning. Then in a few minutes 1000 arrived with Pink footed geese in tow. Wonderful sight and sound @teesbirds.bsky.social @teeswildlife.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social #birds
