Hoodie on the North Denes

Early on, on Wednesday 11th March, following a tweet the previous night I made my way to link's Road car park, I saw Andrew E and Josh, even though there were around 30 carrions Crows around there was no initial sign of the Hoodie. Until Andrew E. spotted it on the beach just north of Link's Road car park, I saw the fine Hooded Crow, but it was with a pack of Crows following a dog walking walking along the shore line It followed back across the beack to Warren House Wood and then flew to the trees just west the wood, before it flew back to Link's Road car park, another dog walker flushed it further south and David & his wife appeared and he spotted it on the wall by railing near the beach where again it was disturbed and it was seen on the North denes, before another dog walker flushed it over to sycamore trees along a cliff. I managed a few pics of it in a tree before 3 dogs rampaging completely out of control flushed it over to the group of tall Pines where I lost it. I walked back to the car park and we suddenly at 8.35am, Kevin B. spotted a trio of Red Kites flew in off the sea and inland. I was loading up the car ready to depart, with the door still open I spotted the Hoodie on rocks just on the beach but danger yet another dog walker walking towards it along the shoreline. I literally leapt into action grabbing the Canon camera and lens and jumped over the wall and headed off the dog walker who condiderately stopped and I was able to get a few pictures of the bird before it flew off on its own accord back onto the beach north of there at 9.40am. I then looked for the Hume's despite looking wuth a newly arrived Derek B. we couldn't see it just a Red- legged Partridge running along the path in the Oval grounds running along the path west of the tennis courts. I also saw a Buzzard in off by Gunton Heath.
