I used to get super excited to visit Cley NWT Reserve and still do! Beach Road, the Eye Field and the North Marsh were my favourites then. So question is it as good as it used to be?

Later start due to the fog. Tucklesholme fog bound until at midday. Two Swallow flew through and a couple of Stonechat were the pick! Just clinging onto summer with those hirundines. @ochrurosbirder.bsky.social

Managed to get onto the flock of 8 White-rumped Sandpipers at Belvide yesterday evening before they flew out east. An amazing regional record that I can’t see ever being beaten. Thanks to @belvidebirding.bsky.social for getting the news out so quickly.

Well that frustrating, I didn’t see the Ulrome Greenish Warbler despite two attempts. 20+ Chiffchaff and 2 Lesser Whitethroat were small compensation. Love that as a patch.

Strong SE winds hampered my birding at Spurn yesterday, most birds hunkered down. Redstart and Pied Fly around and Black Redstart and Whimbrel on the Humber foreshore. Maybe today they will emerge.

Garganey at Blithfield Reservoir today. Caused a conversation of age! Pro male features, left me a little confused because it does not look juvenile either!

Had a day out into Lincs yesterday. No show by the Savi’s at a windy Rimac, but an excellent Frampton RSPB as usual, with Collared Pratincole and several summer Spotted Redshanks taking centre stage! @ochrurosbirder.bsky.social

A good day, started off at Slimbridge to see the summering Bluethroat (White-spotted). The back to Stafford to unblock a Woodchat Shrike! A good day.

Live birding webcams are such fun and addictive! The camera qualities are very good nowadays, UK’s are fairly poor still, maybe because of the lack of quality! Northern Mockingbird just one of the stars this evening! #livewebcams
