Shingle Street Red Throated Diver and Corn Buntings

Popped down to Shingle Street this morning looked out to sea and huge numbers of RED THROATED DIVER'S were flying North, they just kept coming I have never seen so many at one time, they were a long way of shore so no great shots, they were some adults in summer plumage among them!!
 
 
 
Walked up towards East Lane to see if the
CORN BUNTING'S were there, I was lucky there were two singing males.
