Redcar Tarn

Monday 4th May a.m.
When we arrived at Redcar Tarn it was cloudy with some spells of sunshine & a temperature of 10°C.
We first had a look at the pond which is on the other side of the road to the Tarn where we saw BH Gull,Moorhen,Coot,Lapwing & a great surprise & a first for us here a Dunlin.Walking around the Tarn we got our first two Swifts of the year & feeding over the water were Swallows,a Curlew flew over & on the water were the usual birds.Several of the Coots were on nests We went & had another look at the Dunlin also seeing Skylarks displaying & one singing high up into the sky.
