In London….

Well I could work out what this was in Cornwall yesterday. #ukbirding

Great trip to Morocco with @limosa.bsky.social. Many highlights (eg Black-necked Grebe in desert; Cream-Coloured Courser; Pharaoh Eagle Owl) with good views of 11 types of lark (!). Others took great photos but you’ll have to make do with mine…. #birds

An unexpected sight near home today…..

“Go birding in Norfolk in January” they said. “What could go wrong”.

What, ALL THE TIME?

Here’s what I was doing when as editor I should have been packing the Herts Bird Report….

First lifer in India….

As the nights draw in and the snow begins to fall that can only mean one thing…. Yes the Bird Report is on its way! Here hot off the press is our latest offering which will be mailed out to members next week. Thanks to @andy6day.bsky.social for the great photo. #hertsbirding #ukbirding

A year ago on my house…. I had rather hoped for a field of them up there this year.

Harpenden mega - Black Redstart today at East Hyde 11.30-45. I haven’t seen one here for 30 years (when it bred). #ukbirding (Reposted as I did it wrong first time).
