Bright crisp winter days and hunting Short-eared Owls, does it get any better than that. Well, add a Waxwing flying over Bempton village (and landing somewhere near by so it seemed) and two very bold Roe Deer in roadside fields on Cliff Lane and it might just.

On the sea Red-throated Diver and Shags are feeding close in shore in good numbers and the Bird Feeding Garden (BFG for short) is awash with finches and Tree Sparrows and attracting the attention of hungry Sparrowhawks.

Back, briefly, to the Short-eared owls, there are two hunting most afternoons and giving fab views.
