Late whizz round

Heysham Obs

The only coverage today was a late whizz around the usual easy to cover places

Scaup - 2CY male Middleton model boat pond
Kittiwake - 5 on the pipe in the harbour
Finches - none on the north wall and none had been seen by any nearby anglers (and no dogs on the prowl to be an obvious cause) - the anglers reported a photographer had earlier been 'disappointed' not to see any.
Heliport - everything shifted by a couple in red clothing apparently shouted at by the same photographer - not having a good day as, in addition to the above, the wintering Meds have, I think, gone!

Moth
The first March Moth of the year
