Pre-blizzard Atlas


By ek, I'm off. That's Badseawatcher 'n' his camera.

Managed to get my next Atlas square done before the blizzard came in. The square, just north of Robin Hood's Bay and including Ness Point was rather uneventful. This Stonechat being the star turn really. The blizzard was wicked, totally horizontal snow from just before 1 p.m. for a couple of hours or so.

No passage at sea was apparent, just one auk sp was seen to fly north. Other than the Stonechat 2 Red-throated Divers and 1 Guillemot were loitering off-shore and there was a goodly bundle of the commoner gulls.
