After a week of a certain Masked Shrike been around Spurn for a over a week i gave and headed up and had a worthwhile trip around the point. When I got to the area the bird had been favouring the bird was showing well but distance but giving some decent scope views and seeming to be feeding quite with quite a few insects been fed on. Then headed out to the beach where I had some nice views of Dunlins and Little Egrets feeding around the shore edge and further out Ringed Plovers, Redshank, Curlew and Black-tailed Godwits.

Then do some some bird watching around the Anchor Carpark and the Churchyard where had quite a few Meadow Pipits go over along with a few Skylarks, Gold Finches and Linnets before heading to the Ringing area where they had manged to catch a young Rosefinch another new bird for me which was super to see up close before they released it into the bushes where it headed off east. I then headed off into the Dunes where I had nice views of a pair of Stonechats, a Wheatear and a very active hunting pair of Kestrels to end a very enjoyable day.
