Heysham Obs
No early morning coverage seemed justified when a half hour seawatch 1000-1030 produced nothing to trouble the notebook. Pete Crooks then put in 1.5 patient hours and had three sightings:
Common Scoter - 33
Black Tern - one in (the only tern!!)
Pomarine Skua - light morph on the sea, then got up and flew out, climbing all the time
Then a phone call from elsewhere suggested we had missed some early morning landbirds.......................
Then later on the blog title became even more appropriate - summer plumaged AMERICAN BUFF-BELLIED PIPIT at nearby Cockersands - found by Stuart!
Moths
Male Muslin moth was a nice less than annual visitor
