BWF Leaflets and Businesscards Ready!

The new business leaflets and business cards are ready less than a week after ordering!  I've handed in 150 to Humber Bridge Tourist Information; 50 for them, and 50 each for Tourist info Beverley & Bridlington.  I've given out a lot to the Tourist Info Pod at the Interchange, and Hull Central Library. I wonder who else will stock them?

Bits and Pieces of Tolkien

I  haven't had chance to post about Tolkien's time in East Yorkshire recently.  This is mainly because it's been such a hectic Autumn with many venues having to be changed at short notice because of the poor weather conditions. A sign placed on Brooklands Officers' Hospital after WW1 However, this all changed yesterday with a new connection being brought to my attention, about the period just after Tolkien's convalescence.  Phil Mathison, author of Tolkien in East Yorkshire , acting on a tip-off let me know that there may be a plaque concerning Brooklands Officers' hospital in Hedon Museum.  The museum is only open on Wednesdays and Saturdays, so yesterday because it was half-term was my chance.  I asked the elderly gentleman on the desk, and luckily, he vaguely remembered something and took me to a neglected corner of the museum.  I asked him if it would be possible to photograph it.  I was allowed to carefully place the plaque somewhere where it coul...

Almost Daily Cuckoos, but Others Still Missing

Image
On Tuesday the weather was so good we were able to visit some private lakes near Burstwick.  The Cuckoo showed very well for Saturday's recce, but was only heard during Tuesday's visit.  Some summer visitors were still missing, but highlights included 3 Herons on nests, some Sand Martins, and a smattering of Warblers. There seemed to be a lot of summer visitors noticeable by their absence... The biggest surprise was an Avocet, which flew round south lake three times as we were finishing our meal, and then flew off east.  This was the first known record for the site.  Cuckoo  Ditto  Being Mobbed Whitethroat  - Saturday   Ditto  Disappearing Stoat - Saturday  Heron  Ditto  Ditto  Ditto  Great Crested Grebe  Kestrel  Fish Feeding Frenzy  Roach/Rudd?  Roach/Rudd?

Week 8: Round-up

Female Peregrine with young Guillemot? On Tuesday we made our only visit to Allerthorpe.  The vegetation had rioted, and although we saw Willow Warblers and Yellowhammers the only photos I'm left with are flowers.  The birds we encountered included:  Cuckoo, Linnet x dozen, Yellowhammer x 4, Garden Warbler x 4, Willow Warbler x 3, Chiffchaff, Treecreeper etc Heath Bedstraw?   Climbing Cordyalis   Marsh Cinquefoil   Unusual fenced-off plant? On Wednesday we went to Sammy's Point first and found a privet bush  absolutely  crawling with 50+ Red Admirals, 5+ Small Tortoiseshells, a Painted Lady and a Large Skipper.  There was a Willow Warbler flitting among the bushes.  We saw Oystercatchers and 2 immature Herons across the fields.  We then went on to Kilnsea Wetlands.  We discovered that every Avocet chick had perished in the previous 7 days.  On a more positive note there around 40 Little Tern n...
