Hornsea Mere

Sunday 22nd September a.m.
 A trip to the East coast of Yorkshire to visit my grandad today gave us the chance to visit
Hornsea Mere on the way. On arrival the sun was shining with a temperature of 18°C but a
strong wind took the edge off the warm sun.We headed for the jetties straight away & there
were five Little Gulls just what we had hoped for, as they very rarely come into our pennine
area.
 There were plenty other birds around, the sky was full of geese,Cormorants & ducks at one
point, all of which seemed in a hurry to get somewhere.On the water were Canadas,Greylags,
Mallards,Coots,Mute Swans,Tufted Ducks & BH Gulls.
