Shore Lark:  I was hoping I would get another chance to see Fleetwood's Shore Lark before my festive break finished and I had to go back to work.
This was a lovely day trip with Gary and his better half Elise. I was keen to help Gary bag a few new birds and help him increase his list so we headed to Blackburn for the Great Northern Diver.
From there I drove across to Blackpool and with a small detour to check out the waste management roof for some nice white winged gulls.





We arrived at Rossall Point early afternoon and walked up past the receding high tide towards the bird which was more or less in the same place I saw it last time. 








However this time the bird came right up to the sea wall giving us all the best views.
