Returning birder, usually accompanied by my youngest…as his young eyes are better than my old ones! Local patch Elmdon Park & Nature Reserve. Also Marsh Lane, Middleton Lakes and Ladywalk.

New patch tick for #ElmdonPark, a very smart pair of male Pochard.
Excuse the awful phone-photo!
Takes patch numbers up to 63, not bad for a park on the outskirts of Birmingham.

A few from a couple of hours on Sunday, in the late afternoon sun @ladywalknr.bsky.social
Lovely to see the GWEs so active, giving great views from Riverwalk Hide.

Bit closer to home today, an early morning walk around my local patch, Elmdon Park.
Little Egret numbers increasing (4), female Goosander (4), pair of Alexandrine Parakeets and 2 Thrush Sp…brief calls suggested Fieldfare but forgot the binoculars, so not 100% sure.

Visited Gigrin Farm yesterday with my youngest…safe to say we were blown away!
A few of the 100’s of photos we took, including the Leucistic Red Kite…
