Tuesday October 6

Another non-birding day. It rained all morning while we waited for our friends Pete and Barb to arrive from Newcastle. They did so at lunchtime, so we ate here and then headed for Whitby.

I did sneak off briefly looking for anything ornithological.

The Turnstone, one of three, was actually a year-tick. I will be interested to see where the Herring Gull was ringed.

It is now the following morning, outside the fog is thick and the forecast is for heavy rain all day. Obviously its a birding day.
