Lesser Whitethroat
A very pleasant day with blue skies and sunshine and with a morning of chores completed, I headed up to Bempton to see what was about. I did not venture onto the cliffs but stayed around the visitor centre, nature trail and dell. I was hoping for Yellow Browed Warbler but despite being seen and heard in various locations, they eluded me! I was, however, satisfied to see the Red Backed Shrike, Lesser Whitethroat and Pied Flycatcher.

The Red Backed Shrike remained loyal to the fragmented hedgerow at the back of the visitor centre near the owl box. However, it remained distant!
While searching for a Yellow Browed Warbler (and not locating one!) this Pied Flycatcher flitted in the bushes at the back of the feeding station on the public footpath.
Not a bad couple of hours!
