Filey Dams and East Lea Reserves, Filey

Wren

Today promised to be the best day of the Easter weekend so we decided on an early morning visit to the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust Reserve at Filey Dams, followed by pastures new at the Filey Brig Ornithological Group Reserve at East Lea. The morning was bright and sunny with blue skies but a challenging wind did its best to cool us! An Avocet had been reported on Filey Dams yesterday, but had departed by this morning. With nothing out of the ordinary present, it was left to the expected birds to perform for the camera! Also, noted a Small Tortoiseshell on the East Lea Reserve.

Threes a crowd! Moorhen Scrap!
