Trip south toTeesside to meet up with John B.
Looked in the wrong places for a couple of species - solved that error with a nice cooked breakfast at Saltholme before having a better 2nd half - a much unexpected good view of roosting long-eared owl sunning itself on the edge of a hawthorn and later, a drake green-winged teal elsewhere.
The return journey was uneventful with a pit stop near Coxhoe not providing any buzzards of the rough legged variety.
