Mike and I passed by the tern colony this week on one of our Blakeney Point Seal trips and we saw our first Oystercatcher fledglings. The Oystercatcher parents are very solicitous, both Mum and Dad.

Acoording to the Met Office when Blakeney Point seal trips enquired, it is the name for a rather complicated meterological event. As the name suggests it is a plume of very warm air that pushes north from the Spanish plateau [...]

The two weeks that we have had of summer weather in mid Spring have made the run up to the Easter weekend idyllic for the Blakeney seal trips. Of course, every sailing that we do is different – different tide conditions, the seal colony in differing places and numbers and the different seabirds to spot. [...]
