Drake Ferruginous Duck still at Whetsed Gravel Pits this morning. Not ideal with my 250th Kent bird being a dodgy duck but 🤷♂️
Cyprus, day 4: Akrotiri marsh gave good views of the long-staying White-throated Kingfisher (present since Aug 23), also Little Crake and 5 Marsh Sandpiper. Later we had 3 Avocet, a couple of Redstart and 23 Purple Heron thanks to @AndersG2211 #cyprusbirds
Cyprus, day 3: started off with Eastern Bonelli’s Warbler, Bonelli’s Eagle and Little Crake near Paphos. Given the runaround by the Bimaculated Lark for a couple of hours with no luck. Decent consolation with 2 Calandra Lark and 4+ Lesser Kestrels nearby @birdsaroundcy
First full day in Cyprus produced 84 species, mainly around Akrotiri. Plenty of the targets seen inc. 4 Wheater sp., Cretzschmar’s Bunting, Cyprus Scops Owl, Spur-winged Lapwing & 2 Pallas’s Gulls this evening @birdsaroundcy
Stunning scenery in & around the Cairngorms NP today. The birds weren’t bad either with Golden Eagle, Goshawk, Crested Tit and Green-winged Teal seen. Also Slav Grebe at Loch Fleet NNR at dusk
Very relieved that the Myrtle Warbler showed almost as soon as I arrived on site earlier - almost constantly chasing Blue Tits and flashing its yellow rump
Great day out birding the South West with @BenCollinsSmith: Baikal Teal, Kentish Plover and Cirl Buntings in Somerset, and then onto Cornwall for the Ring-Billed Gull
Highlights from a soggy morning at Denge Wood: 1 Hawfinch, 1 Lesser Spotted Woodpecker (male), 2 Firecrest, 5 Marsh Tit, 20+ Brambling @KentishPlover @lesserspotnet
Rarity of the Year Britain & Ireland 2023 @BirdGuides. So this is it, the final in what has been an incredible year for mega vagrants - two American warblers in Pembrokeshire, a warm ocean seabird and an Asian wader. Thanks for the retweets and cast your votes now...
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Great Northern Diver still present in East Peckham this morning. Also 5 Bullfinch, 20+ Goldcrest, 1 Firecrest and a flock of 23 Lesser Redpoll @KentishPlover
52 species at @leedscastleuk this morning including the site’s first Cetti’s Warbler (according to eBird), Common Gull, Kingfisher and a few Siskin over.
Not the best conditions for a hungover sea watch at Dungeness this morning but singles of Leach’s Petrel and Storm Petrel have brought my UK list up to 300 ✅ Also 8 Sooty Shearwaters, Arctic and Great Skuas & Little Gulls
Marching and calling for a ceasefire and peace so that more innocent children don’t get killed is not really the definition of a hate march.
Marching and calling for a ceasefire and peace so that more innocent children don’t get killed is not really the definition of a hate march.
Pretty special morning at @FlamboroughBird watching the Red-headed Bunting with ~100 other birders. Constant stream of thrushes and Pink-footed Geese coming in off the North Sea. Also Brambling, Tree Sparrow and Woodcock
Would have been rude not to stop and see the two Ross’s Geese on the way back to Calais this afternoon. Dodgy pic of them flying off below
Just arrived - well done everyone @KeithPrivett1 @KentishPlover love @BenendenKent cover illustration. KOS members get this great report, if you want one and the benefits of KOS membership visit kentos.org.uk
Just back from seeing the Magnolia Warbler and Canada Warbler. Two mega birds, and two manic twitches. Thankfully the Melodious Warbler was a bit more relaxed.

168 Followers 434 Following Birds are my bag 🪶🐦⬛🪺 BTO Kent Ambassador and Kent Ornithological Society rep. When I’m not thinking about birds I’m playing with clay and ink. 🍂Superb evening [for a change] A great walk around Hothfield Heathlands @KentWildlife. At least 4 singing Nightingales, excellent flight views of a male Cuckoo between bouts of song, our first singing Garden Warbler of the yr, 3 Whitethroats, 1 Willow Warbler, Blackcaps & Chiffs…
The day started wet and windy, but the sun came out at Marismas de Cetina (although the blustery wind continued). Great opportunity to tease out the odd Pallid amongst 600+ Common Swifts. Highlight of the day, though, was an adult male Monties at nearby Laguna de Medina
Spain's not just about the birds ... fabulous food & service at La Reinventa (Alcala de los Gazules)
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.
Terrace tick! Four Spoonbills over high. Another day of flatpack horror so little birding done ... and neither is the flatpack.
@birdsaroundcyprus Spectacled Warblers feeding LCA sewage works hide.#cyprusbirds
This, and finds like it within inland counties like Surrey, show no matter where you bird, finding scarce & rare birds can happen anywhere. Whilst the 'hit rate' might be less cf coastal areas, it provides hope - from young to old - to those who love finding 'their own' birds.
LITTLE CRAKE on Papercourt this morning - last seen five mins ago trying to relocate @SurreyBirdNews @BirdGuides
As @mcbuckland has said, we needed patience to get good photos of Cyprus Wheatear last week. Fortunately, we had some... What a gorgeous creature with a lovely song. Blog in preparation...
Nice patch visit this morning, highlight was this Whimbrel, settled for a time before heading north, LRP, Green Sand, Willow Warbler, Swallows, Sand and House Martins completed the best bits.
Such a classy elegant wader, Marsh Sandpiper just before the sunset. Normandy Marsh
Ferruginous Duck, 20-04-24. Whetsted, Kent
Warblers from Spain - Sardinian, Spectacled, Subalpine & Western Bonelli's -I'd be happy for any of these to turn up at Bockhill this spring.
A family holiday to Cyprus in early April provided plenty of birding highlights.......
Northern Lights from Reculver Towers, Kent @ 21:54.
After an early start this AM now catching up with the bird list plus some relaxed birding from the terrace in Alcala. A dozen or so LKs drifting around @Brendan_A_Ryan @jarpartridge @BEACHYBIRDER
Lady’s mile late PM: 3 Red necked phalarope, 2 Dunlin, Spotshank, Marsh sand, 300+ Ruff, 3 Slender billed gull, 5 Little tern. Nearby: 2 Blue cheeked bee eater at Akrotiri marsh + 6 Collard Pratincole and Whinchat. Little crake and Citrine wag on the M1 pools. #cyprusbirds
Patch visit started with a drake Pochard only second record this year and a single Sand Martin. Things moved up a gear when @MarkLop41375406 picked up a Serin singing which unfortunately departed before we could find, it minutes later I had these 4 Cattle Egrets new for site 👍
Tarifa 2024. @jarpartridge desperately seeking the seasons first Honey Buzzard. A faceful of Black Kite, Black Stork, Booted & Short toed Eagles not enough for some… 🤷🏼♂️😂
Had early stroll around The lakes at snodland. 2 willow warblers,garden warbler,lesser whitethroat,20 house martins and 8 sand martins and 12 nightingales.20 blackcaps singing.7 chiffchaff singing and at least 2 whitethroats Singing.
