Two male Redstarts
We were sat on the moors watching for the Redstarts when we heard this continuous 'tap, tap'. We eventually located this Nuthatch basically knocking hell out of this nut. A very determined bird indeed.

Well the weather has been fantastic for this time of year so have tried to spend as much time out of doors as we could. We went to Bempton on Sunday which was a super day although we only managed to see two Puffins on the sea. Plenty of other birds around though along with a shore lark and Yellow Wagtail in the fields. Around the local area there are plenty of Redstart, Whitethroats and lots of warblers including a very vocal Grasshopper Warbler which we sat and watched yesterday for about 15 mins, just singing its head off.
