Thornwick Pool, Flamborough

Skylark

A pleasant couple of hours in human solitude at Thornwick Pools this morning, enjoying the sunshine but not so much the strengthening wind! Reality was not far away, though, with holiday shouts and barking dogs from the nearby caravan park! Three year ticks though - Green Sandpiper, Little Ringed Plovers (3) and a Sedge Warbler. Also, Common Snipe (5), numerous Swallows and Sand Martins and a male Shelduck. Nice to see the water levels reducing making it ideal for waders.
