I got there at about 4.30 and stayed until at least 6.30 and there was no sign of them,several people searched the area between the RAF base and Grainthorpe Haven,but to no avail.The birds have been present for at least 2 day's,being seen yesterday evening and again this morning by a local farmer,who let Steve Lorand know and Steve didn't see them until this afternoon heading in the direction of Pye's and that was the last sighting.The birds could still be in the area as the weather on site wasn't particularly brilliant and they could have been sheltering.No doubt they will turn up at Spurn tomorrow.The only unusual sighting we had was a drake Mandarin!.



Regards



Steve.
