I particularly hate "from the get go". What does that even mean??

At this rate, Black-faced Bunting will soon outnumber Yellowhammers in the UK #ukbirding

Looks like a Schedule 14 claim to add higher (Bridleway) rights as a result of use by horseriders.

I remember when it was 1 night not 2 weeks.

Make that 6-2 if you're including Orkney 😉

Saw the 87 bird. Despite being on in 93 I never actually bothered going to see that one. Not sure what that was all about 🤦

Stunning

Thank you 😀

Excellent. What brand/model camera do you use?

Nice 👍

Eventually fine views of the Black-faced Bunting at Spurn this afternoon. #ukbirding ##Yorkshirebirding #spurnbirds

Finished A4 page of paintings of the White-throated Needletail that was on the UK east coast a couple of weeks ago. There is one main painting showing the underside of the bird with it's brown body, black wings, pale throat and forehead and the U shaped white area at the rear of the body under the short square tail. There are several smaller paintings surrounding this main picture showing various poses.

Did this between some commission bird learning, but now not sure whether to add a blue wash to the background of the main bird now... I rather like it as it is but🤔

WOW

🤣

Did a doubke-take as I drove past Catcliffe Flash. A quick U-turn confirmed what I thought I'd seen, 4 Great Egrets. Possibly a record count for the local area, though certainly the most I've seen together. #Ukbirding ##Yorkshirebirding

Good work, Andy. Sadly, we get very few gatherings of Golden Plovers these days.

Almost 35 years to the date since I found my one and only 😱

I regularly had double figure on the nearby Tinsley Park Steelworks. Still good numbers locally, though usually at one location.

Jack Snip, a species I thought I'd lost on the patch due to the development of favoured areas. Hopefully, these SUDS drains will continue to hold them through the winter. #Orgreavebirds #UKbirding #Yorkshirebirding

The very places that are filling up with Reformers. A generation abandoned by consecutive governments, now turning to the far right.

The Sprosser took me back to a great weeks birding in Poland in 2019. 👍

Certainly the first record on the west side of the SBSG recording area Andy.

I did.

I dipped everything on Thursday 😐
