Year ticks keep on coming :)

This time a Sooty Shearwater off Newbiggin-by-the-sea, thought i would get my seawatching off to a start with a trip up the coast, very quiet but did get that year tick, also had 20+ manx sheartwater and a dead minke whale off shore :( Cresswell had Knot-4 x greenshank-6 avocet, then it was back to stella to look for the yellow legged gull again but no sign this afternoon :(

Dead whale :(
