New painting in the pipeline, I have seen a couple of these in the last few days so it’s lovely to be sitting down and painting one.
I had one sat in a tree right by my garden, couldn’t get a better reference source!

That’s a wrap on Female Kestrel- 12x16inch watercolour on cold press.

Such a joy to do, so much learning on this piece. Moss was a new one for me!

Awesome day with @ianhayes.bsky.social being our guide today at ham wall/shapwick! lifers for me with hobby, whitethroat and the star of the show a bittern (which unfortunately for the others, only I saw briefly fly over the reeds!) windy conditions not ideal for birding, but a fabulous day!!! 💗

Collection of roses from the garden 💗 I think I have 11 different types… not to say I’m a bit obsessed! #flowers #garden #roses #gardening #ukgarden

Stunning walk with @clennonvalley.bsky.social today on the moors. Cuckoo, redpoll, whinchat, wheatear, garden warbler, redstart being the stars of the show. A lack of birds of prey, 3 buzzard and a kestrel.
Racked up the steps, so a glass of vino blanco is utterly deserved. #bird #birds #dartmoor

We then moved to stover after lunch at Parke- checked in with the beautiful mandarin ducks (little sis was very impressed by these) we also had 4 stock dove under the treetop walkway, and a couple of treecreeper.

Took my little sis out for a birding day today. We went first to yarner woods. Didn’t get the LSW, but plenty of pied flycatcher, willow warbler, goldcrest and the obligatory stonechat

Lovely morning, went to Broadsands to tick the Surf scoter off the list, then a lovely walk around longmarsh with the furry one. 11:15am- my offspring haven’t even surfaced to say happy Mother’s Day and I’ve already been out twice 😂

(2/2) we moved onto shapwick and Avalon- not a lot going on so left and went to cheddar reservoir where we lucked out with little gull and black necked grebe!
Thanks so much for having me @ianhayes.bsky.social
Back home via a detour for the blue-wag- no joy but I did get a nice water pipit 💗

A day out birding the Somerset levels!
Slow birding day, not a load going on at Ham wall (bitterns heard but not seen- so no lifer tick for me!) even the beardies didn’t show. We did see a ring- necked duck, a single leftover pintail and our first Hirundinidae of the year with a sand Martin. (1/2)

Lovely walk in Yarner Woods today in search for LSW, no joy today though! I did see a raven doing some super rad aerial acro so il take that. Also what we assume is a very neat badger Sett.
