Thursday 2nd May

A drake Lesser Scaup spent the day at Anglers CP although it was generally distant. The drake Ring-necked Duck was still at Tophill Low on D Res. A Hawfinch was at Spurn this morning and the Long-tailed Duck was still on Beacon Ponds. The Spoonbill continued to commute the Lower Dearne Valley in South Yorks. Still a few migrant Ring Ouzels around.

A few migrant Ring Ouzels are still around including this one at North Cave Wetlands yesterday - Mike Ashforth

No comments:

We are indebted to Dave Britton who has kindly compiled the following reference for the all 21 volumes of Yorkshire Birding magazine. The electronic version is available on request from yorkshirebirding@blueyonder.co.uk

.

Copies of all back issues are still available, contact spurnywt@gmail.com

for further details.

NOTES

1 The 3 number references are Volume, Issue, Page.

2 Items which feature in most or all issues (Seasonal Summaries, RSPB News and the Editorial snippets on the first few pages) are omitted to save space as are general entertainment items (quizzes, crosswords, comic strips etc.).

3 The articles 'A Yorkshire Birders Diary', which have complemented the Seasonal Summaries in each issue since Volume 6, have also been excluded. These have been contributed by John Hewitt (1997 and 1998), Frank Moffatt (1999), John Beaumont (2000) and John Law (2001).

Damian Money (2002), John Horton (2003), Darren Starkey (2006 and 2008)

4 Mr Listers Gossip Column (in every issue since Volume 8, Number 2) is also excluded.

5 The sections involving bird species are listed in Voous order (still used by Birding World) rather than the somewhat volatile systems which have replaced this in recent years. Other sections are broadly in alphabetic order.
