A much cooler morning with grey sky. Being a bank holiday we are attending the market in King Street, giving me the opportunity to have a walk around the harbour.

Literally, a day of two halves! The morning consisted of a typical sea fret, burning off late morning and becoming a very pleasant, sunny late spring day. It was very busy on the reserve resulting in all three car parks opening and filling very quickly. The birds performed well, with all breeding seabirds present and easily viewable, including the Puffins so no one went home unhappy! A report came in, late morning, of TWELVE, yes 12, Bee eaters flying over Staple Newk! Well and truly gripped off as I haven't seen even one! Another visitor stated they had also been heard over the car park!
Puffintastic!

A pleasant walk this morning around the Bempton circular in spring like conditions! No big coat today! The Red Backed Shrike was again showing in the boundary vegetation of the old RAF Bempton site, but always distant. Puffins were playing hard to spot on the cliffs but all of the other breeding seabirds were easily viewable.
