All very quiet still in the continuing blustery westerlies. The return of a gull flock off East Cliffs saw the reappearance of a few
Yellow-legged Gull - at least 5 at times - and an
Arctic Skua was in attendance; 4
Common Scoter and a lone
Manx Shearwater represented the poorest of returns when it came to passage offshore. Incremental improvements in the wader situation saw today's Ferrybridge tally consist of 53
Dunlin, 4
Sanderling, a
Knot and a
Whimbrel.
