Third time lucky! Greatham Creek Pacific Golden Plover today. Tried my hand at Digiscoping 馃槵
It's been a good couple of days for me again in my home county. My first Bonaparte's Gull yesterday and my second Eastern Subalpine Warbler today!
Lammergeier and Alpine Accentor from day 2 of our Northern Spain trip
Pyrenees Winter Break 2/5. Our efforts to get Snow Finch got little reward beyond Alpine Choughs, Crossbills, lovely Alpine Accentors and this impressive Lammergeier landing right in front to us and swallowing a bone. Legend!
Pyrenees Winter Break 3/5. A cracking day around Lleida including amazing views on 3 Wallcreepers, Black Wheatears, Pin-tailed Sandgrouses, Golden Eagles, Hen Harrier, Stone Curlew & even African Sacred Ibis before ending the day with a singing Eagle Owl! #birds
My first Bedstraw Hawkmoth and in my own garden this morning. Planting for wildlife is paying off 馃檪
Another 2 tick day on Friday! Collared Pratincole at RSPB Frampton Marsh then the Savi's Warbler at Rimac...what a great day
We had great fun trying to capture this Red Veined Darter in flight. The first one I have ever seen and just down the road 馃檪
2nd tick in a week and still in Yorkshire! Ortolan Bunting at Wykeham Forest 16 June 25
Another local twitch for me this week! Song Sparrow Flamborough Headland 10 June 25
Dartford Warbler on a recent trip South. Such charismatic and beautiful birds
A crazy twitch to see this Spectacled Eider off Texel, Netherlands. What fantastic views and an amazing bird, just WOW!
A visit to Northumberland for the White Billed Diver yesterday resulted in WB Diver, Glaucous gull, Grey Headed Lapwing and to my delight, a beautiful adult Ross's Gull! Wow!
