Bridlington Harbour - 30th Seotember 2020

 

Kittiwake (I'm really not sure about that shadow though!

A quiet walk around Bridlington Harbour is a pleasant experience but does not very often offer up interesting wildlife. Maybe a few Divers and sea ducks will appear as winter arrives. It was interesting to sea c60 Kittiwakes on the fish dock still.




Nope! Still not convinced about that shadow! 


Purple Sandpipers are always a pleasure to see, especially when they are not asleep!




Always on the look out for an easy meal, the brutish Greater Black Backed Gull



And the harbour itself can be quite atmospheric!

  1. You'll have to excuse me as I'm new to the naming of birds but trying to learn.
    Hubz knows a lot more than I do, so a bit of competition going on.
    We have a holiday let at Flamborough and we visit regularly. We'll find it really useful to recognise different birds in the local area. Do you take all the photos yourself? They're amazing (another thing I'm not good at)
    Looking forward to viewing more of your birding exploits

  2. Thank you for commenting on my blog. Yes, all of the images are taken by myself. I'm sure you will soon learn both birds and photography skills, its all down to time and practice. In fact no one knows it all!
