Started the year off well with a rather neck based theme. The grebe showed really well early on before drifting further out. The same can't be said for the pair of rnds which played hide and seek on the other side of the reservoir. #ukbirding #yorksbirding #yorkshirebirding

What a month october was, with good numbers of migrants and a nice spread of rares throughout the month to keep energy high. Close friends Dan Beadle and Jack Morris picked their visits well producing a bluetail and the bunting respectively.

My first month on @northronbirdobs.bsky.social has been successful, 5 lifers and 3 self found rarities (booted, lancey and brown shrike). #ukbirding #rarebirdsUK
