3 Lifers, 1 Year Tick, 1 Yorkshire Year Tick. Not a lot to celebrate then. Except that I found a Great Shearwater! On the East coast. Magic A Bonxie and a few Manxie's plus shedloads of Sooty Shearwaters and Light, Intermediate and Dark Morph Arctic Skuas. Flyover Greenshank, Harbour Porpoise and loadsa Little Gulls and Terns. Curlew Sand at Tophill was cool as was Knot for Yorks this year. All GOOD!! Hehe.
