Don't report any sightings on here any more due to my Nest Recording and and a report about a pair of Peregrines on James Cook Hospital which was thought it was easy to get to which was impossible but I thought this was interesting. A overwintering Grasshopper Warbler on Ormesby Beck.

There was a young Black-throated Diver (winter immature plumage according to my book) fishing in Hartlepool Marina this afternoon. Thought it was a young cormorant, but they were about as well and I've checked in the book. I have photos.

Saltholme highlights from this afternoon:

Well over 500 golden plover; at least 180 barnacle geese; one pink-footed goose (between Paddy's and Back Saltholme); 7 whoopers dropped in at Back Saltholme for a while but departed around 3. Three female/juv goldeneye on Paddy's and one male on Back Saltholme; two red-breasted mergansers also on Back Saltholme.

Two marsh harriers spotted near Haverton, and a short-eared owl was hunting near the dragonfly statue shortly after 3. A small number of fieldfares were around (saw two at Haverton and another three on the approach to Saltholme pools), and there were two stonechats on the walk to Saltholme pools.
