A rewarding couple of hours @FileyBirdObs earlier today in spite of the bracing NW wind & the odd icy shower. Three confiding Snow Buntings on Carr Naze, a Red-necked Grebe, two Great Northern Divers & a single Little Auk all on the sea, bay side of The Brigg. @nybirdnews

Carr Naze, Filey seems to be a regular spot for Snow Buntings - this bird was wonderfully obliging before too many people arrived!

A slight increase in autumn passage migrants evident today, but still steady, with the star being a lifer with the lovely Brown Shrike in off at @FileyBirdObs, which gave good views. A steady walk atop @Bempton_Cliffs produced H Harrier, Peregrine plus sibechat.

Another of the juvenile ruff group at East Lea, Filey Dams currently. So beautiful. Glad there is still enough water to attract passing waders. Superb @FileyBirdObs hide always. @nybirdnews @waderquest @Natures_Voice @NatureUK

A bit more spoonbill action at the wonderful East Lea pool at Filey Dams. Always worth my @FileyBirdObs membership to visit here. Very cutting wind blowing through the new-ish hide; great recent landscaping nearby too. @nybirdnews @waderquest @teesbirds1 @Natures_Voice @NatureUK

Spoonbill, East Lea, Filey Dams Came for the ruddy shelduck, but this bird beat me to it. Still present noon after brief drop into the Dams side. Might be the one I’ve just seen at Scalby. @FileyBirdObs @nybirdnews @waderquest @Natures_Voice

Lesser Y legs still at Filey Dams today (3rd day), this being the 4th record for the Dams. Nice addition to my "small" finders list. 🤣 @FileyBirdObs @nybirdnews
