Some more patch gold today at Grantchester, when this smart pair of Garganey dropped onto the River Cam. Thought I'd listened to one too many recordings when I first heard the brushing-a-comb calls downriver - unexpected 109th species for the site for me @CambsBirdClub
Welcomed back to my final term of uni with 9sp of warbler on the local patches, the best being Grasshopper Warbler & Lesser Whitethroat. Also Water Voles, Noctules, Yellow Wag etc. And yes, I do not want to hear any combination of the words 'Woodchat,' 'Shrike' & 'Beddington'...
3 male Wheatear, as ever, topped off a little fall of spring migrants this morning @BeddingtonFarm. 69sp total, other highlights being 6 Reed Warbler, 3 Whitethroat, 2 Yellow Wagtail, 2 Willow Warbler, LRPs, 5 raptors etc. The best time of year #londonbirds @SurreyBirdNews
After two decades of restoration delays at Beddington Farmlands, a new planning application has been submitted that seeks to exploit the BNG framework and legitimise past ecocide including the loss of the Tree Sparrow population. Please object via the link in the comments.
After a quiet & typically miserable end to February, March has actually seen some sun & warmth. Patch birding has peaked with Merlin, Jack Snipe & regular Barn Owls. Live nocmig has been highlighted by Dunlin, Water Rail then Common Scoter last night in college. Spring?!?!
A low quality recording but considering it's from WhatsApp, not awful - Great White Egret sound rec thanks to @henrywynjones who I was sending a voice message to, and @Zach_Pannifer & @FinchleyBirder for walking past the bird to get to me. Teamwork makes the dream work 🙌🏽
Had a quality little day in Essex y'day, in both birds & company. Northern Waterthrush (🔊⬇️,) Black-throated Diver, m Hen Harriers, Merlin, Water Pipits, 00s of waders/Pintails were trumped by the Red-breasted Goose, which kindly landed on the sea in front of us. @EssexBirdNews
A shopping trip for rice saw me instead return having seen Merlin, 8 Waxwing & 45 Greenfinch all in/over central Cambridge. Waxwing also recently became my 169th sound recorded species in the UK, with the goal being 180sp by the end of the year. @CambsBirdClub @SoundApproachUK
First article I've had time to write in a while - discussing some of the pros and cons of AI Birding, mostly focused on Merlin. Many thanks to @BirdGuides for publishing, hopefully of interest to people 👍🏾

A special thanks to the 2 Whinchats that made me stay an extra 10 minutes @BeddingtonFarm today, or I'd have missed the juvenile Marsh Harrier which spent 27 minutes practising hunting over the lakes. Also 113 Meadow Pipit through, Wheatear, Stonechats, Hobbies etc. #londonbirds

With 2 Bittern, Cuckoos, Turtle Dove, Willow Warblers, many Garden Warblers, Hairy Dragonfly and 50+ Variable Damselfly it's great to have it an easy bike ride away down the busway
Dotterel at Aldeburgh Marshes this afternoon was a memorable bird to mark my 200th species in Suffolk this year. Congrats to finder Val Lockwood and thanks @aldebirder for precise directions. My first in the county for many years.
9.3 TRILLION insects found migrating at night above agricultural China! Some of these insects are pests, but many play vital positive ecological roles e.g. pollination, decomposition, & nutrient transfer which could be vital to soil health in the region! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Wow what a day. After a fall of birds including Whinchat, Black Redstart, Osprey, Ring Ouzel, Pied Fly and Cm Redstart at Holme I was fortunate to find this Eastern Subalpine Warbler late in the day. Thanks to @BLI_Jim for nailing these photos.
Just a day after I saw my 299th bird for the UK, I managed today to catch up today with the Woodchat Shrike at Anderby Creek! Making this my big 300th species for the UK!! Please excuse the awful record shot as it was what felt like 100mph winds!
Wet and cold visit to @BeddingtonFarm , missed most of the wader action first thing but good to see a nice male Whinchat , couple of wheatears , some yellow wags including another putative female type Flava and another Avocet which looks to be a different bird to last weeks.
Really pleased to catch the group of 5 Grey Plover that were reported at Earith this afternoon, looking pretty sharp! Also a nice group of Common Ringed Plover, amongst other things @CambsBirdClub
Took a trip up to Hartlepool today to see the Dark-Eyed Junco. This has to be one of my favourite birds I’ve seen in ages! Today brings me to 299 for my UK life list, very excited to see what number 300 will be!
Big Day yesterday at @RSPBRainham with @BRNature1 @FinchleyBirder @westldnbirder - 100 species for me. Highlights including Scoter, Black-necked Grebe, Little Ringed Plover, Whimbrel, Sanderling, 88 Arctic, 208 Common, 7 Sandwich Tern, Hobby and Firecrest, Gropper heard
A fantastic day. Thousands of Terns, with 16,000+ Common, 3,100+ Arctic, 154 Little, and 48 Black. Skuas on the move as well with 50+ Arctic, 7 Pomarine and 2 Great. Top counting by Martin! A modest arrival of passerines too with Whinchat, Pied Flycatcher and Firecrest the best.
Impromptu birding today resulted in Little Gull and two Yellow-legged Gulls at Dernford and bumped into a showy daytime Tawny in Cambridge itself (phone-binned).
Unbelievable evening on the patch with @AlexRafinski - going down almost every night this week finally paid off! Brilliant views of this Pec Sand, as well as a Wood Sand new for the year - epic!
A few from Kaliakra yesterday, pallid harrier, calandra lark, hoopoe and woodchat #Bulgariabirds
Dotterel! I've walked miles this week and it's my birthday tomorrow, so I was over the moon when this bobby dazzler flew past me this afternoon. Just west of Grimsby at Europarc
FOS(First of the season)sighting in Central Park of one of my favorite Spring migrants: Black-throated Blue Warbler. He always arrives looking sharp with his blue jacket&little white handkerchief in his pocket. Welcome to NYC & safe travels to you my little friend! 😍
Modern day Rosa Parks
John Terry talking about the time he and a few other Chelsea first team players boycotted their flight until they were moved out of economy and back into first class😳
Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine is blocking actual Palestinians 😂 @ColumbiaSJP: “ We know what's best for you. You just shut up and be quiet you idiot brown people!”
After advice from Chris @RareBirdAlertUK this falcon now thought to be a calidus Peregrine, a fine bird nonetheless - always stuff to learn #Bulgariabirds
Overnight rain produced a big fall of migrants in the Kaliakra area, mainly wrynecks and thrush nightingales but also flycatchers, shrikes, nightjar, quail and countless whinchat #Bulgariabirds at its best
Was nice to catch this stunning Ring Ouzel in one of the Heligoland traps on @FI_Obs this afternoon! What a stunner!
