Having had a good birding session a couple days earlier, Brian and I decided to begin our regular day out at the Humber Mouth Yacht Club on the Fitties and time it for hight tide. It was again a beautiful warm and sunny day, although with a strong breeze blowing. Surprisingly, despite having more time, we saw fewer birds. We walked down as far as the boating lake before retracing our tracks. We enjoyed sitting on one of the benches at the back of the Fitties cam watching the receding tide. We picked up a few more birds here but not as many as I expected. Looking, through the 'scope, though, there were many thousands way out on Tetney High Sands just off Northcoates Point.
