Mystified trying to find the field north of @rspb.bsky.social Adwick Washlands to find the White Fronted Geese. Wandered many a mile. But it was worth the trek! Besides the White Fronted Geese saw Pink Footed Geese and a bonus Treecreeper. 😊

Smew at Knotford Nook, Otley only a stones throw from home. Too wet and cold to get a photograph. Fabulous to see this splendid drake nevertheless. #birding

A serious birder for only 6 months of this year and hit 120 species 😊 Next year's target is 175 🎯 !! Final day of 2025 found me at St Aidans @rspb.bsky.social where me and these Curlew had a very early and cold start. See you next year! #birding

Day at St Aidans to catch the 2 Glossy Ibis sighted on Middle Ings. Another miss but an excellent day never the less. Called in at Fairburn Ings on way home - greeted by scores of Redwing.

Down Embleton Bay to Stag Rocks. Treated to many birds in flight, at sea and on land... including this Purple Sandpiper. Thoroughly enjoyed the day despite the cold and rain 😁 #birding

Excellent day at Old Moor reserve. Good to see Redwing. But perhaps the highlight was this Robin that wanted to jump in my pocket! @rspb.bsky.social #birding
