As in recent years, my daughter Katherine and myself arranged for a weekend at Spurn :Point and on-route called in at the RSPB reserve at Blacktoft Sands.
A Pectoral Sandpiper which had been seen earlier in the day did not show but we did manage to see a good variety of birds.
 |
| Redshank - One of many feeding in the lagoons. |
 |
| Green Sandpiper and Teal |
 |
| Teal - Several hundred were present. |
 |
| Black-tailed Godwit - Perhaps over 30 present. |
 |
| Common Snipe - One of the closer birds |
 |
| Marsh Harriers were frequently seen on the far side of the lagoons from the hides. Good numbers clearly breed here. |
 |
| These two photos are not the best quality but show the species in typical hunting mode. |
 |
| Marsh Harrier - One of several individuals seen. |
