Bridlington Harbour Birds - 29th September 2021

 

Turnstone

Another wander around Bridlington Harbour in search of birds and, as always, hoping for a rarity to turn up, but, of course, they never do! The Kittiwakes on the fish dock have cleared out with only two being seen this morning. No sign of any Redshanks, probably due to the tide, I think they may be on the walls close to the Spa. The Auks (Razorbills and Guillemots) also seem to have reduced with only one Guillemot seen off the harbour entrance.

The Purple Sandpipers took some finding again! (Two with Turnstone).

And a ubiquitous Mallard!


One day I will find something special!
