Enjoyed a few hours of aimless wandering around East Yorkshire today, starting with North Cave Wetlands. Not many waders about, but the air was full of birdsong: chiffchaff, blackcap, blackbird, sedge warbler, cetti’s warbler, plus the mournful piping of a pair of oystercatchers. The highlight was three common terns – slim, graceful, agile – flashing across the water and diving in for fish.
