Common Gull
Still looking for a scarce gull without luck. Not even on a pleasant walk to Tynemouth from the ferry.
Cormorant
The bill is over-exposed but it meant the light on the folded wings showed more detail. Click on image to zoom in.
Great Spotted Woodpecker
The Marine Parks (North and South) have been very productive with the commoner species.
Magpie
Mistle Thrush
These birds seem to be paired up already. I think they are early nesters but the sharp frosts this week may delay them?
Redshank
Redwing
c20 Redwing feeding in the leaf litter.
Sparrowhawk
In the last two weeks I have seen many different birds. Tynemouth Priory (above) and South Marine Park (below). Also birds at Cornthwaite Park, Roker Park, Whitburn Steel, Harton Cemetery, Marsden Quarry and Trow Quarry.
Treecreeper
Chiffchaff
This bird is overwintering in the North Marine Park.
