Trying to sort out why my list didn't tally with the number on here and it looks like I missed Common gull off the list right back on the first day! Final score was 605.- Trystan

14/11/15 Chesterfield Well, this started out as a very relaxed twitch. A UK tick but not a year tick, I arrived before 8 and paid parking until 9 expecting it to be nice and easy. Plenty of space to stand without worrying if the bird might be somewhere else but the Crag Martin had other ideas...- Trystan

11/10/15 Spurn Back for another bite of the cherry, this time coinciding with a large fall of Goldcrests which is always fun. Some nice birds again today, managing to catch up with Richard's pipit and Yellow browed warbler, only one today. The putative Eastern redstart failed to convince me...- Trystan

23/9/15 The 22nd had been a day trip to Cadiz with no new year ticks. A nightingale along the scrub near the hotel in the morning was a new migrant for the trip. The 23rd was an excursion to Gibraltar. We set off early in order to sight see along the way. We found a turn off at the Embalse de...- Trystan

20/9/15 Today was to visit Seville but I tried the Lagunas de Labrija on the way up, needing to keep it brief as my wife was also present. The first two lagoons were completely dry, while the Laguna de cigarrera still held water, it had shrunk away significantly from the edges. There were only...- Trystan

My dad lives in another part of Spain but we arranged to meet here in order to see and...- Trystan

06/9/15 Frustrating day today as I was booked on the RSPB cruise out of Bridlington but it was cancelled due to the weather conditions. Several hours at Flamborough at least produced a couple of year ticks but was not as good as the previous day. Flamborough 585. Sooty shearwater 586. Arctic...- Trystan

15/8/15 Tempted out by the reports at Spurn of Icterine and Barred warbler plus the come-a-day go-a-day White rumped sandpiper, I arrived to find that nothing had been seen for some time and the day looked like being a complete write off for year ticks after 3 hours trudging round and finding...- Trystan

12/8/15 Another Wednesday evening jaunt, this time to try for the Spotted crake at Blacktoft. I've only seen one before and that was fairly fleeting so it was nice that this one spent so much time in the open at the edge of the reeds. Blacktoft 581. Spotted crake 582. Water rail A brief...- Trystan

01/8/15 With a slight chance of a Yorkshire tick by way of Little bittern and still needing Bittern and Water rail for the year I decided to spend the morning at Old moor where decent flight views of the Bittern made it a semi-successful trip. Old Moor 578. Bittern- Trystan
