I decided to head out to Carr Naze before sunrise this morning to walk the dog and, of course to capture the sunrise! I don't think it was far off a frost so on went the heavy coat, warm hat and gloves with absolutely no regrets!
Scarborough and it's castle also showed well in a golden glow
Of course, birds were not missed out, although not a lot about. Concentrating around Carr Naze pond, my list included Meadow Pipit, Skylark, Rock Pipit, Greenfinch, Goldfinch, Linnet, Reed Bunting and three Dunlin. One of the Dunlin was ringed, showing three red rings on it's right leg and a yellow above a blue ring on it's left leg (plus a silver ring). I have been informed that this bird was ringed on Filey Brigg on 14th September 2018 and is a long billed Alpina race (thanks Dan L).

Tomorrow, we will have a wonder in Scarborough!
