Absolutely stunning Shore Lark on Birkdale beach today, one of the nicest I've ever seen in the UK and a strong contender for bird of the year this year. I've never seen one so yellow, or with such distinct horns. It was also a very obliging bird. Also on the saltmash, a mixed flock of Twite and Linnets.
