Popped down to Spurn and got lucky with the Woodchat Shrike (P.142, S.100) which appeared just as I arrived!
It looks like the local star has moved on, with no sign again today of the GWE. I really enjoyed having this bird locally and I'll never look at that ditch in the same way again!!
I spent the last hour waiting for Terns...they didn't arrive. A couple of Scoters on the sea were a nice surprise...
...especially when they decided to join a passing flock of 35! A couple of Whimbrel headed south calling constantly and there were a few groups of dapper Oystercatchers.
I'm still getting a few visitors to my bird bath...
