Bean there

With Burdon Moor shrouded in fog this morning I carried on over the hill and on to Boldon Flats. The Tundra Bean Goose was picked up quickly, feeding with Wigeon at the far side of the pool. Also here were 2 Black-tailed Godwit and a smart Mediterranean Gull.

On to Whitburn Steel and 2 Water Pipit were eventually seen through the drizzle, despite the efforts of the ever thoughtful dog-walkers that plague the beach.

The Bean Goose was much closer to the road on the way back, allowing some photos through the gloom.
