The action continues over the last couple of days, with highlights today of a Green Woodpecker (locally very rare) briefly on Carr Naze and a Hooded Crow in the Top Fields (DL), Snow Bunting and Marsh Harrier north at Gristhorpe Bay (MJP) and a Red Kite over the town (J & TGD).
Yesterday (5th) saw an Avocet on the sea off the Gap before heading north (KC, NC) and the White-fronted Goose still with Greylags, this time at East Lea, where the White Wagtail also remains. 6th, meanwhile, was very productive for visible migration at the Gap, with highlights of a Great White Egret, 493 Meadow Pipits, 1035 Common Gulls, six Corn Buntings and 252 Linnets north (KC), while a Little Egret overflew the Dams.
