Spurn Point

Yesterday I spent the day at Spurn Point as part of the Spurn Migration Festival (Migfest). There was lots going on, with guided walks, talks, photography workshops, bird ringing followed by a hog roast and some live entertainment. However I avoided most of that (apart from the hog roast) and just went for a walk with my camera. I met some lovely folk, and saw plenty of wildlife with some new species for me including a Marsh Warbler, White Rumped Sandpiper, Spotted Flycatcher, Yellow Wagtail and Ringed Plover. There are plenty of places to sit and watch the waves for passing dolphins and whales, plenty of hides for birders and a fantastic new Yorkshire Wildlife Trust centre. A really enjoyable day out, the weather behaved itself and I clocked up a few miles in the process.
