Against convention I'm going to start with Friday's session, as both morning AND(!) afternoon sessions had close encounters with a very charismatic and confiding pair of Bearded Tits.  In the morning it was a male and female.  In the afternoon it was a same-sex couple.  The afternoon was exceptional, as most of our sightings of these birds have been well before lunch, but the two males were near the new screen well after 3pm. The  sole reason for this behaviour was put down to the presence of 3 newcomers, so thanks Ian, Daniel & Lucy, you may come again!

Both Thursday's and Tuesday's sessions were altered from exposed locations on the estuary to the benign shelter of Tophill Low.  Here,  we enjoyed our closest ever views of Green Sandpipers, as well as views of more than 40 other species. The Grey Wagtail was in difficult light on the Tuesday only.

On Wednesday despite the almost gale force winds we were able to go to RSPB Blacktoft Sands as planned.  Despite the weather we saw a pair of Bearded Tits feeding under the shelter of the reeds on a muddy hump.  They were missing in the afternoon, so a Kingfisher had to act as compensation.  The biggest news were 4 Spoonbills which flew in from Alkborough Flats.  The difference between adult birds and immatures were pointed out, but unfortunately, they didn't stay for the afternoon.

The previous Friday the class went to North Cave Wetlands.  There were plenty of insects sheltering from the high winds in certain areas, but the birds were more distant.

A week last Thursday, which was the first class of the whole term was at Alkborough Flats.  Only one Bearded Tit was seen, but there were more than 40 species including plenty of waders.    You may see some of these waders further down the page - photographed a few weeks earlier.
