It has taken a bit of legwork to get this GW Egret at Alton Water decoded (well done to Laurence Potter for tip-off that we had a bangled one there). Turns out it is from NE Poland, border with Lithuania. I've seen a couple of reports from Belarus, so fits the pattern. #UKBirding

I completed the Swainson's and Grey-cheeked Thrush illustration over the weekend. It was really enjoyable to work on these 2 subtle American vagrants that I was lucky to see earlier this Autumn close to home. #donegalbirding

I’d call that a Pallid on pale greater underwing coverts, pale cheek, dark eye and white at front of face isn’t overly contrasting

My drawing of a Siberian Thrush
Here’s the finished Siberian Thrush drawing. Bringing it to life on paper was a great way to relieve the memories of a really special bird!

The rufous flanks were starting to break through, and in good light there was a blue sheen around the eye, confirming it as a young male as I had originally thought.
The distinct head pattern was just breaking through also, still a long way to go before it is a stunning adult male. I can only hope it remains for the winter and into next spring.
On the water, and in poor light, it looked very dark, impossible to make out any colour. The white crescent at the base of the bill was the only indication that is was a young male.
One of the Harlequins Ducks I found a few weeks ago has settled down on a quiet little beach in North West Donegal and I was really fortunate to spend a bit of time with it recently. Fingers crossed now that it stays for the winter, what a glorious sight it will be in a few months.

After a dawn raid on the Point, this little beauty was cowering in the buckthorn on my birding walk back, not far south of the Breach at Spurn. Thomas Willoughby’s brilliant pic. Bird of a lifetime. A British tick as well 😂
