Close in Eider from Redcar Cinema today. Juv Peregrine from Marske a few days ago. @teesbirds.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social #UKBirding #NEBirding

Peregrine flew straight over Redcar Cinema today, heavily edited as i didn't have correct settings. Also 8 Whooper Swans (4 ad 4 juv) flew east past Marske, and must be around 800-1000 Golden Plover on the coastal field. @teesbirds.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social #UKBirding #NEBirding

Sun spots taken this morning with Dwarf 3. Seems to work well for wildlife and planes too, short clip of it tracking a plane passing as well. Wondering how well it can maybe track larger birds, so will test tomorrow.
