Late afternoon twitch at North Landing, Flamborough


Dad and I went to North Landing in search of two Richard's pipits that had been present for sometime. I had already missed them once and was determined not to this time. We walked along the fields which they had been in but we didn't see them, or any other pipit species.
I did get good views of Fulmars but no Richard's. As we were walking back as the light was beginning to disappear I saw two birds fly low across the field, it was them. We must have walked past them before. This was not just a year tick but also a lifer, I am very glad we saw these two Richard's pipits.
