Birds, NUFC, Severnside patcher, some occasional ICU doctoring
Most things overshadowed by the penduline tit found yesterday, but there was a trickle of #vismig yesterday from aust. Frustrating was a probable Richard’s pipit that went over calling NE but I couldn’t get on the bird. Few groups of crossbills were nice! #ukbirding

Decent (!) day 1 on Scilly with a clean up job on Agnes - mourning dove present and correct, plus absurdly showy hoopoe, American pipit, spot sand and lap bunt. Not a bad start with @matthall95.bsky.social @oscardewhurst.bsky.social #ukbirding

My 5 year old made this a few months ago telling me we were going to win a trophy this season. Yesterday he got to go to school proud as punch with his toon top under his uniform and his teacher just let him wear it all day. Thank you Eddie and the lads, words can’t express what Sunday meant #NUFC
