Finally managed to make it up to Seahouses Harbour and rewarded with close views of the Black-necked Grebe and even closer views of a Little Auk ! The Little Auk was feeding close to the harbour wall inside the harbour and totally unconcerned with my presence. At one point within 3 feet ! After this excitement I moved north along the coast with highlights being a Puffin off Stag Rocks (Bamburgh) with 8 Long-tailed Ducks and a few Purple Sandpiper, 600 Barnacle Geese in Budle Bay and a splendid Peregrine harassing the waders at Fenham Flats.
