Great views of these Black Guillemots gearing up for spring, at Belfast’s City Quays a couple of weeks ago. Lots of vocalising, display and checking of nest sites #birds #ukbirding #irishbirding #northernirishbirding

Always nice watching Red Kites, with spring amping up they’re all now starting to chase each other around

Brilliant morning in the Durham Hills with @nathanieldargue.bsky.social watching 27 Black Grouse lekking in the snow

A great trip to Prague with @alice-louise1998.bsky.social for our anniversary last weekend, a gorgeous city and some brilliant urban birding too.

One of the highlights was this vagrant male Syrian Woodpecker, as well as great views of a Black Woodpecker and so much more

Hi Mark, I’ll send that over to him! Thanks for the kind words

Great views of some Snow Buntings on the beach at Holkham last weekend, featuring @owenbeaumont.bsky.social seawatching

Hi David, that would be fine with me. Nathaniel

The Siberian Chiffchaff at @rspb.bsky.social Titchwell showed nicely by the Dragonfly Pools in the lunchtime sunshine during a visit last weekend

Bar-tailed Godwits on the beach at @rspb.bsky.social Titchwell Marsh during a trip to Norfolk with the guys this weekend

A good start to a weekend in Norfolk with the lads, great views of the Shore Larks at Holkham this afternoon. A quick edit of one photo, before heading to the pub for a few pints and some pizza!

Lovely views of this female Teal the other day, looking splendid in the winter sun with an autumnal reflection colouring the water

#birds #ukbirding

Always nice when they do that, plenty of photos where they didn’t

A small flock of Pintail put on a great show for me on Friday at @rspb.bsky.social Fairburn Ings as they flew past me at eye level

#birds #ukbirding #yorkshirebirding

I was treated to some brilliant views of Red Kite at @rspb.bsky.social Fairburn Ings on Friday, it was great watching them twisting around on a cold frosty morning

#birds #ukbirding #yorkshirebirding

The sunny frosty mornings this week made for great photographic opportunities, such as this Long-tailed Tit

Enjoyed watching this Great White Egret battle with a Perch it caught the other day, eventually the Perch won and lived to fight another day

#birds #ukbirding

Nice to watch a flock of goldfinches feeding on the seed heads on a cold morning this week

#birds #ukbirding

According to BirdGuides there was one there on 17th October, a male on 26th October and two females today

Lovely views of this male Lesser Redpoll this morning, whilst wandering through the frostbitten landscape

Yes a Eurasian Hoopoe

I was treated to lovely views of the Hoopoe in Stamford Bridge at the back end of September. Having spoken to the homeowner, I sat in my car watching the lawn it liked to forage on and was treated to epic views with nobody else around

Cheers Mac, compressed a bit but didn’t expect it to retain the 4K quality of the original

Let’s see how Bluesky does with video. Here is some PhoneSkope footage of the Lesser White-fronted Geese at @flamboroughbird.bsky.social yesterday having a drink

Thanks to @nathanieldargue.bsky.social for info- the ringed Lesser White-fronted Goose in the flock was released as a juvenile in 2018 and it’s the first time this bird has been seen in the UK, only seen on breeding grounds in Sweden and wintering grounds in Netherlands so far

After dawn at Swinemoor, it was a joy to head to North Landing and watch the seven Lesser White-fronts, one of which is bearing Swedish colour-rings. They spent the whole time bullying their companion Russian White-front juvenile

Olive-backed Pipit

Red-breasted Flycatcher

Icterine Warbler

First post! Seemed only appropriate to post some Yorkshire Birds first. Here’s three highlights of a trip to @flamboroughbird.bsky.social last month, during a brilliant afternoon of autumn birding
