YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER!

On the 9th February I saw the Yellow-rumped Warbler in High Shincliffe thanks to the family who found it on their Big Garden Birdwatch in late January and to the birders who worked hard to get the news out for all to see it. New feeders have been put up on the side of the road and have successfully moved the bird away from the estate which means viewing is far easier. Unfortunately I got no photos on this visit but I am hoping it wont be my only visit to High Shincliffe as this is a first for Durham and only the 3rd for mainland Britain.

Later that day was spent in Sandsend, North Yorkshire with family and a very obliging Iceland Gull...
