A day out in Scarborough for Karen's birthday

A change of plan as we had originally decided to go to Seahouses in Northumberland  for the weekend. The weather forecast was dire with heavy rain forecast for the entire weekend. Shouldn't have taken any notice of this as it was, as usual, totally wrong! So, Friday was Karen's birthday so off we went to Scarborough for the day. First stop on the way in was B & Q where 2 waxwings were in the trees outside. Next stop was to The Mere where a cracking bacon butty was devoured while we searched for the firecrest. Drew a blank on this one so decided to head off to Holbeck carpark for the Med Gulls, we saw 3. Then down into Scarborough for the Great Northern Diver and a chippy lunch. A perfect day !!

Then home for lashings of chinese takeaway, wine and Karen's pressies. A lovely day out xx
