Good one. Yellow, I think 👍🏻

Definitely one of the great ‘props’ from famous rarity pics, along with an Orcadian toilet seat and some gas canisters on North Ron; & a parked red Audi in Oxon. Wonder what others I’ve missed?

What makes it fulvescens over tristis? Is fulvescens even a valid diagnosable taxon these days? I rarely see it mentioned now.

The kinglet 😭

Wow. Aiming high! Vismig poor here. The autumn’s highlight probably a single flyover Brambling. But 2024-5 has been generally exceptional for me for new garden birds.

Your garden’s on 🔥 mate.
(Not literally, thankfully). Nothing going here, sadly. I missed a parakeet that flew right by the house yesterday, apparently! Hopefully still in the area, somewhere.

You can wear an eighth of a kilt apparently. Will be even draughtier though and we’ll need to be all warned in advance! 😆

Glad not too late yet for a Chimney swift ❤️

Common tern, Luke.

Bill structure & head shape too, I think.

Incredibly gripping and amazing pics. Not likely to survive for long, sadly.

I don’t mind them doing the last bit, it’s the first and middle parts of the slogan I don’t approve of

I used to stay regularly at Portland Bird Observatory in Dorset. Sometimes it was in the old lighthouse & once - when they were full - I was put on a mattress in its bookstore. Perhaps there’s the institution to suggest it to!
