Pomarine Skua at Messingham Sand Quarries

Fabulous find at Messingham this evening by Karen and Simon Spavin - photos below by Neil Drinkall - as far as we know this is an excellent first spring record for the Scunthorpe area, blown inland by today's strong westerly gales - Wayne’s photos to follow shortly.
First image is sat on a Coot’s nest having taken all the eggs - also took Black Headed Gull’s eggs - it had better not get my Shelduck chicks.
