Enjoying learning about birds and birding whilst getting as far away from the city as possible.

Nice to see such variety down there at this time. Bullfinch seem to be quite a regular down there.

Another trip to the North Yorkshire coast saw me finally break my Sanderling (wader) duck for the year. Plus i got to enjoy the Purple sands again. Never gets tiring

Great days birding yesterday at The Outstrays. Six species of geese, endless waders, harriers and short-eared. Topped of with a lovely Scaup pair.

Well its got to be a worth a look. Even if it’s only to hear the wigeon. They always lift my mood

Wasn’t expecting a group of Barnacle geese to turn up on β€œmy local patch” yesterday afternoon but fantastic to see them a 20min walk away. Worth the mud bath any day

Spent a little too much time looking for Tundra geese this weekend, to no avail. In between the wild goose chase I paid a visit to Filey Brigg, Figham common and Seamer tip pool.

Great honest read as always. A Caspian gull literally has to walk up with a name badge on for me to be happy with it’s ID

It certainly looks that way :)
I must be using the wrong apples as our Blackbirds never touch them, just the raisins/sultanas

It looks like he’s appreciating the food on offer.
We used to have a wintering blackcap in our previous garden, sorely missed.

Contrasting weather at Filey yesterday.
Golden and Ringed plover, Dunlin, Purple Sand amongst those on the rocks and common scoters, GN and RN divers and mallards amongst the seafarers. Oh and a legless Herring gull

That’s not bad at all for a β€˜gentle’ start. First day kingfisher at NCW 😯
I’ve seen one in a year there, I need to borrow your eyes and ears
