Birder. Ireland.
We finally arrived to the wadi north of Ouadane, Mauritania on Monday evening. It took a lot of effort but we finally dug out the three northern Mauritanian WP specialities - African Grey Woodpecker, Blue-naped Mousebird and Golden Nightjar.

Well done @brianmccloskey98.bsky.social for getting Irish birding a bit of primetime coverage on @rte.ie
Maybe Nationwide or RTE News will be joining us seawatching this year!
Haha thanks very much Declan! It was great to be given the chance!

My first post on Bluesky. Some of the better birds I’ve seen in Ireland and the Western Palearctic this year. I have big plans to target some more very rare species in the WP next year. Algerian Nuthatch, South Polar Skua, Caspian Tit and Yellow-crowned Night Heron pics attached.
