Aspects of Bridlington Harbour & Bay (Birds) - 12th August 2023

 

Purple Sandpiper

A mild bright morning, and being low tide, I decided to have a look at the bird life in and around Bridlington Harbour.

Best birds were the returning Purple Sandpipers, at least six birds, and my first of the "autumn"!


On recent visits, there have been hundreds of Razorbills, many feeding their juvenile. Today, no sign of Razorbills, but have been replaced by Guillemots but in smaller numbers



Oystercatcher

Turnstones


Redshanks


Great Black Backed Gulls





Herring Gulls



Cormorant




Mallards

Thank you for looking.
