Heard the distinctive call of a Chough on my headland walk this morning. Looked around and this beauty was striding towards me. #CornwallBirding 🪶

I was incredibly fortunate to see Frankie the Flamingo on the day she hatched. She was from day one a super strong character. Wishing her luck on her journey, and love to all at Paradise Park.
Have a look on their website at all the great conservation work they do.

Added Shoveler and Lesser Scaup to my Life List today, very happy. Thanks to the other birders at Helston Boating Lake who pointed me in the right direction.
Scrappy record shots. 🪶 #CornwallBirding

My Mum kept my childhood bird book safe for me. Such a joy to look through it again with a reignited passion.

Managed to see the Lesser yellowlegs on the riverbank behind Tesco, and opposite the flats, in Truro. I was pointed in the right direction, and I pointed others that way as I left.
Do try and see it if you can, such a lovely bird.

I’m so sad to hear Jane Goodall has left us. What a wonderful human being. My condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues.
This book is a favourite of mine, I highly recommend it.

Managed to see the beautiful Red-necked phalarope at St Gothian Sands this morning. Many thanks to birders Chris and Jeremy for pointing me in the right direction.
