Had a spare few hours today so headed to a very chilly SWT Lackford Lakes to see the drake Green-winged Teal that has been on the Slough for a few days, there were also a pair of Goldeneye on the Sailing Lake & at least 4 Crossbills beside Plover Lake plus lots of Siskin and Redwing #Suffolkbirding

Enjoyed a very pleasant @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social boat trip on the River Ore and Butley River on Sunday, was interesting to observe a good number of waders from the boat. Also before the trip I managed to see the North Warren shrike which was showing very well #Suffolkbirding

Slightly off topic, apologies. Collected a car load of Redstart, Nuthatch, Spotted Flycatcher and Grey Wagtail nest boxes from our SBG volunteer. These are destined for suitable east Suffolk habitat; Southwold, Ufford, Woodbridge and up along the Deben and Ore. @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Three more beauties ready for action! 🦉 Handcrafted by one of our brilliant volunteers — these owl boxes are all set to head out and become des-res homes for some very lucky barn owls. @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Circumstances can change, SOSSwifts have had these 3 Swift boxes donated back into the @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @suffolkwildlife.bsky.social project. We will happily donate these 3 nest boxes on for you to install at a Suffolk location where Swifts nest already. #SaveOurSwifts

A grand day out at the Mansion House in Ipswich for Discovery Day! BOSS was there with the other brilliant Suffolk Bird Group projects — and the barn owl pellet dissections stole the show! Curious young minds, tweezers at the ready, and plenty of “ewws” and “wows”! 🦉🔍 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Full steam ahead! We’re busy getting owl boxes up before winter sets in — giving our feathery friends plenty of time to find their new homes well before next year’s breeding season. Ladders out, tools at the ready, and spirits sky-high! 🦉 🍁 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Nice walk around the village this morning with 42 species recorded on my birdtrack.bsky.social list. Seems to have been an increase in Blackbirds and Wood Pigeons over the last couple of days and a few Swallows went over heading south #suffolkbirding
