Razorbill feeding Juvenile
A bit of a "yuk" start to the day around the harbour with rain, heavy at times and very poor light, so images are a bit "iffy"! It did improve as the day progressed. Not a bad birding day though. Bridlington Bay had hundreds of Razorbills, many adult birds with and feeding juveniles. There calls to each other were fabulous! Adult birds are moulting into their winter plumage.

A few Guillemots were also present with moult occurring

Turnstone
A distant pod of Bottle Nosed Dolphins
Large numbers of Sandwich Terns passed through the bay, with a count of c156 in a thirty minute period.
Later in the day when conditions improved, people numbers increased, as did boat activity, dispersing the birds further out into the bay.

Thank you for looking.
