Such cool birds!
SPOTTED! Record-breaking numbers of Glossy Ibises are arriving across the UK 🤩
Large flocks, some up to 90 strong, have been turning up from Cornwall to Scotland...
Though rare here, their numbers have been booming further south & our milder winters could mean more in future.

Imposter syndrome never goes away and it’s making me feel pretty low right now. I need to close my laptop for the night.

The male Brazilian Teal (Amazonetta brasiliensis) might be gray-brown on the outside but it packs a lot of color into its outstretched wings! Many thanks to @gleneth93.bsky.social, who recently updated the Systematics section of this account. Visit:
