I wonder if Mr Packham might like this for his Springwatch calendar ?

Got there a bit later and was a bit luckier than you Tony, walked around to the back pool and saw the Gropper then some commotion on the Car Park was caused by this bird feeding on Ants at the bottom of one of the large posts around the park (Excuse pics but I've only got a compact).

The Ring Ouzel was still in the cemetery at 6.45am seen by Andrew Tongue - just waiting to see if it has its evening wash & bath!
Barn owl was out a bit later tonight, as were the groppers and none of the other either...
I thoroughly searched it between 7.45 and 9 am without success, plenty of Blackies tho. Which part was it in at 6.45, does it have a favoured area?

Got the groppers tonight and a meadow pipit doing a very good tree pipit impersonation, 'parachuting' into a tree canopy. If it had kept it's mouth shut I'd have been totally fooled. No barn owls though, but we'd didn't stay very long, only an hour or so from 7.15.
Crippling views of 1 of the 3 Groppers up at Bempton RSBP this morn, no sign of the Wryneck though, may go back up later on,
Hi - not very good pic (long story involving stills off video via the tv rather than the pc!
However these were seen in the gorse bushes in the ravine just off the top end of the north landing car park at Flamborough yesterday afternoon.
(I have more pics which I can upload later today if this would help anyone)
See what you think, they were in the tops of the gorse.
thanks in advance
