Jan 2nd

The foreshore east of the Humber bridge produced Turnstone and Knot in the morning with the Snow Buntings still present. Having a station pick up to do at Barnetby mid afternoon I ventured up the Wolds; it was windy and cold and sometimes damp. Sitting talking on the phone the ash tree which had hosted a Little Owl in December suddenly revealed that it had a hole in the bole and the owl which had eluded me the previous day suddenly appeared in full view; a Kestrel nearby and a Common Buzzard near Kingsforth, though, added five species to the list which moved on to 83.
