...followed by a Short-eared Owl hunting over the Thornham GM & a female Common Redstart which flew in over the borrow pits and landed in a sallow in the reedbed, plus Greenshank, Whimbrel, Common Terns and a steady trickle west of hirundines and Swifts, despite the drizzle!
Guiding today - we spent the morning at Titchwell. It started very well, with the Black Redstart still, 3 Wheatears and two male Yellow Wagtails dropping into the paddocks beyond the car park first thing...
...and to cap it all, this White-tailed Eagle drifted in from the Wash, flushing all the geese, and then circled up over the reserve mobbed by a Common Buzzard. Presumably one of the IoW birds, it appeared to have a 'backpack' fitted.
...the Black Tern was still showing well too, hawking back and forth over the reedbed pool, along with the 1s Little Gull...
...then the Red-breasted Goose flew in right over my head and landed on the water next to the path. It has been a good winter for them, but always great to see, particularly when quite so close. With a pair of Pale-bellied Brent Geese too at one point too...
A rare cross-border visit to @RSPBFrampton this morning - it started well, stumbling across my first Wood Sandpiper of the year which showed well when it wasn't being chased off by the long-staying Lesser Yellowlegs...
...I was half way up the East Bank when news came out about the Wryneck along Beach Road. I had almost gone up there instead to see if I could find a Whinchat, but made the wrong choice. There was a smart male Whinchat there too when I got there.
...then the long-staying Long-billed Dowitcher dropped in, right in front of the hide. Starting to look very smart now, as it moults into full breeding plumage for the first time...
Had to go into Holt this afternoon, so popped down to @NWTCleyCentre afterwards. First up, this male Bittern appeared in the reeds behind Bishop Hide, grunting briefly before flying off towards the East Bank...
Guiding in Norfolk yesterday - it felt more like winter, but we managed to catch up with a few spring migrants. Highlights included the 5+ Ring Ouzels at Holme & an Osprey which drifted in over the Freshmarsh at Titchwell as we were walking back to the car park at end of the day
The Lesser Kestrels were back around their colonies in Extremadura last week and we enjoyed watching them flying round and displaying in various places. Most of the males were carrying food for the females and interestingly all the ones I photographed had caught mole crickets.
A trio of Curruca (Sylvia used to sound much nicer!) warblers from Extremadura last week - Western Subalpine Warbler, Western Orphean Warbler and Spectacled Warbler. The Orpheans were quite vocal but typically rather skulking in the dense evergreen oaks.
I'm normally thrilled to see one pratincole, let alone a small group. But here's a flock of 90+ Collared Pratincoles wheeling round over the ricefields of Extremadura - there had been more in the air just before, but some peeled off, and there were yet more still on the ground.
We saw good numbers of Rollers in Extremadura but at some sites which have been occupied in previous years there were no birds around the nest boxes last week. Hopefully still more yet to arrive. Stunning birds.
We did well for Spanish Imperial Eagles in Extremadura too - we managed to see at least 3 different adults, with great close views of two of them, and probably 3 immatures
Just back from a week guiding in Extremadura, Spain together with @OrioleBirding. We saw plenty of Great Bustards out on the plains but got lucky with this one on the dam of a small farm reservoir right by the road one afternoon. Best ever views!
Just back from a week on Cyprus - family holiday & birding with @lukenashnature. Plenty of good birds, but no photos as all our camera gear was stolen in a burglary at our villa. Seems a growing problem, particularly in Coral Bay/Paphos, so take extra care if you are out there
Just finished a week on Cyprus with @norfolkbirdtour - hard work for common migrants but still managed 3 lifers (Tibetan Sand Plover, Blue-cheeked Bee-eater and Little Swift), plus some other rares. However, this is the only pic I have as our cameras were stolen in a burglary!
Some nice bees out on coast when sun sort of came out today - Mining-bees included lots of Andrena fulva (Tawny), female bimaculata (Large Gorse) and couple of Yellow-legged (flavipes) & my first Nomads of the year included Nomada goodeniana (Gooden's) and this Variable (zonata)
The Bearded Tits have been showing well at times along the East Bank at Cley recently. This male was feeding along the edge of the ditch this afternoon, while @lukenashnature and I were failing to find any spring migrants.

The cracking Eastern subalpine warbler at Holme this evening with @iPterodroma tricky to photograph but showed very well
CITRINE WAGTAIL / CITROENKWIKSTAART, Baarland, Zeeland, Netherlands, April 29th by Lennart Verheuvel. #birds #vogels #birdwatching #vogelskijken
A fall of passerines at Akrotiri yesterday. Among the birds were an Icterine Warblers, 19 Spotted Flycatchers, six Red-backed & a Woodchat Shrike, three Common Redstart, three Tawny Pipits, two Whinchat, Turtle Doves and a European Roller #cyprusbirds
Earlier I had enjoyed seeing my first odonata of the year at @RSPBMinsmere: Hairy Dragonfly, Variable and Large Red Damselflies. Also this summer plumage Grey Plover which was bird of the day until I saw the Dotterel!
First Hobby of the year for me today seen @RSPB_Strumpshaw 😊
Fabulous day on Iona in superb weather - lovely quiet walk from west shore to north coast beaches. The view towards the Burg from the latter is probably one of my favourite views anywhere. One of my favourite beaches too! @welcometoiona
Once the heavy rain finally relented, a four hour dash around the outer head @FlamboroughBird was a blast. Six Ring Ouzels & male Common Redstart my personal highlights along with 47 Wheatears; this one needs to brush up on its Health & Safety!
Randon survey, I watch West Brook pits from this view point, next to a minor (ish) road. In ten minutes - eight cars have pipped at me - WHY do they do it?....
Of the much discussed species in decline, Greenfinch is certainly having a better year with us this year. It will be interesting to see if the additional singing birds convert into successful breeding... A nice male from today's walk. 😀
A week back ‘home’ in North Scotland. Osprey’s fishing amongst the Sandwich terns. Waking up to the wink wink of pinkies. Four species of divers. Eagles. Good food. Sun, sea, sand and mountains 🧡
The enigmatic Chestnut-headed Nunlet showed superbly this morning at a recently discovered accessible site, west of Manaus. #BirdsSeenIn2024 #Brazil
A British Ringed Plover may 'migrate' less than a mile each year but some of its cousins leave NE Africa in April and might not arrive on Russian breeding sites until June: wadertales.wordpress.com/2018/01/25/wel… Research by Pavel Tomkovich et al in @WaderStudy #waders #shorebirds #ornithology
It seemed the northerlies might never end, so today's light easterlies & 9 degrees C @FlamboroughBird felt like a heatwave. Migrants arrived, with personal highlights a Short-eared Owl, Whimbrel (2), Hooded Crow, Reed Warbler, White Wagtail, Common Redstart & this Ring Ouzel.
Grey Gorse Piercer (Cydia ulicetana) on Beeston Common this morning
Its been almost 20 years since I last saw an Eastern Orphean Warbler, so I was delighted to see this singing bird at Davit Gareji Monastery on the border with Azerbaijan today.
One of the highlights of birding Salisbury Plain are the confiding Corn Buntings.
@norfolkbirdtour @RSPBFrampton Good to hear you enjoyed your day with us Marcus. The eagle is G641, a young male released last year on the Isle of White.
A superb day’s guiding at @RSPBMinsmere with my @naturetrektours group. 80+ species inc 3 Cranes, displaying Marsh Harrier, close Bittern, Stone Curlew, Hobby, Nightingale, Redstart. Then a fun catch up with @BergholtBirder on his patch seeing 2 Wood Sandpiper & 2 Jack Snipe.
It's always great to see migrant Whimbrel on Spring migration! One of the nicest wader sounds up the Bristol Channel/River Severn on their way North. This individual is currently one of two awaiting a clear weather spell to leave @lundybirds.
Nice to see some sunshine today and a drop in wind. Lb Dowitcher, Cattle Egret and presumably the intro scheme Wt Eagle seen in the Cley area today. The latter heading low east over the shingle from Salthouse Beach Road
