Whats next

Well done to DJS for his Gannet yesterday. Took this picture of an Arctic Skua at Filey Brigg the other day. The strong northerly winds had blown a lot of Great and Arctic Skuas in to the North Sea so perhaps we may be due a bird in Calderdale. Most Arctics in Calderdale have occurred in late August but the only two Great Skua records have been in September and October after strong northerly winds.
