Sat 27th March Newbiggin -Druridge

Saturday another run up the coast first I called in to Newbiggin for a walk along the coast then through the golf course, no gulls in the bay and just a handfull along the coast , a couple of Wheatears on the golf course and a group of Meadow Pipits , Cresswell I just gave the top end a look over the field but nothing for me , Druridge again about 40 Tufted , and lots of Teal on the wetlands a raucous few hundred Black-headeds with 2 Adult Med gulls dropping in , the Black Redstart still behind the plantaion though very mobile , 3 Wheatears also here and about a dozen meadow Pipits.

It's not fair, I keep missing these birds at Druridge - I'm working too hard obviously!

Thats a fine looking Black Redstart but there was no sign of it today.

Abbey Meadows
The bird did go into the dunes for sometime but returned to the fence line especially when the sun came out.
