Seabird & Whale Trip Report 3rd & 4th July
A great start to our 2021 Seabird and Whale Trips. Good numbers of breeding and migrant seabirds, ceteceans and we even had a migrating Red Admiral which flew past the boat! Our leader for these trips Jono Leadley has created a species list for each day below. Photos by Simon Ward Yorkshire Wildlife Trust survey volunteer.
