Finally saw my bogey bird yesterday after years of hearing but never seeing one. Walking the slopes of the Blorenge, I watched a GS woody in flight, then suddenly in the distance there it was - Cuckoo! And not just fleeting but good views for several mins @gos-birds.bsky.social #birds #birdingWales

Lovely morning and company with @gos-birds.bsky.social at Goytre woods and canal. Year ticks for Stock Dove (heard), Spotted Fly & Tree Creeper + the usual woodland mix. #birds #birdingWales

Hello fellow birders. Would anyone fancy conducting this year’s @bbs-birds.bsky.social in my square in Llancillo (10 mins drive from Abergavenny). It’s a lovely two transects with farmland, woodland and river. I’m unable to due to illness. Happy to chat more if you’re interested #birdingWales

Big Garden Birdwatch complete. Average garden numbers this morning but good to see this part of the uk comparing favourably with the national average.

A lovely (if very cold!) afternoon with @hoppy1951.bsky.social along the estuary south of Aust. A single brief Shortie sighting (which I missed!) but a dozen or so other ticks for the new year.

Beautiful morning on the Blaenavon moors. No Short-eared Owl but pairs of Stonechat and Bullfinch were a delight. #birdingwales #ukbirding #ukwildlife #birds
