Easterly gales means seabirds at the Humber Bridge

The 20th was a tad wet and windy but managed to put in 5 and a half hours by the Humber Bridge 07:30 - 13:00 - the main species were Little Gulls and Kittiwakes with at least 250 and 120 respectively but probably many more giving amazing views and experiences as they sought shelter in the inner estuary - additionally there were skuas, at least 30 Arctic, three juvenile Long-tailed and a single Pomarine plus a first winter Caspian Gull, Yellow-legged Gull, three Brent Geese and a juvenile Arctic Tern  -- a few posts showing some of the birds but all images taken in dire light with constant rain so no great quality
