I completely forgot to ask about a bird out to see that I caught – albeit it badly from afar – as it flew along the Theddlethorpe NNR coastline heading north.
Below are 3 images, what do the expert birders think it is? I have no idea, first thought was Long Tailed Duck? But as usual with me this was only a guess and I am sure I will be miles away LOL!
Please take a look at the images above, apologies as very poor long distant shots, these have only been cropped and not altered at all, i was on a dull but clear day.
I look forward to your thoughts folks! 🙂
Hi Steve, Its a Gannet, probably 2nd Year bird.

Looks like a 2nd year Gannet to me.
