They can close the access if they want from ocean edge to the harbour waterfall area but I always liaise with them during regular birder influxes for white winged gulls, Sabine’s gulls and wwbtern etc and I think it is reasonable for them to ask that cameras are not pointed through the fence. Inevitably there is always the odd “no one tells me what to do” loner who can’t cope with this “restriction” but fortunately these are few and far between and in two cases don’t go near the place now after being spoken to by the patrols. Long may this access stay open and news put out at this site. Before it closed I was working at kings North in Kent and there was a Caspian gull on the outfalls alongside but outside their security fence. I put it on the pager and within three hours was phoned up and told to remove it otherwise I would not be allowed back on site. Bearing it mind a much higher national alert than then, Heysham power stations are very good although you are predictably and reasonably being watched at all timesPete Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461363671751316069noreply@blogger.com
