A glorious winter's day on the Costa del #Solway coast spent soaking up the sights and sounds of thousands of Barnacle Geese at @rspb.bsky.social Mersehead. Also nice to see Whoopers, Peregrine, Twite, Pintail, Tree Sparrow and more. Now time to try and defrost in the pub! #ukbirding

Bit of a Shore Lark smash and grab up the Great Orme this morning! Dashed out of work when the bird had been relocated and arrived to see it showing well on the cliff edge. Took off out of view 10 mins later and I headed back. A great site record and an overdue first for me. #birdingwales #ukbirding

A throwback to a warm summer's day at RSPB Titchwell Marsh and some lovely female Wasp Spiders for my first #arachtober entry of the year.

Rarity is just a matter of perspective, as @bardseybirdobs.bsky.social migration illustrates.

A slightly slower start to the day at @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social was livened up by a close Arctic Skua flyby this morning, the showy Pectoral Sandpiper at Easington lagoons this afternoon, and great views of multiple Yellow-browed Warblers throughout the day. Made a mate too! #ukbirding

Wildlife on the move at @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social today! Highlights inc. a large pod of Bottlenose Dolphins moving north, a distant Long-Eared Owl, hundreds of thrushes arriving in-off, a showy Jack Snipe and a handful of Yellow-browed Warblers - inc. this colour-ringed bird. #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk

The birds weren't the only ones making the most of the good weather on the Great Orme yesterday. This rather tired looking Painted Lady was fluttering around the cliffs on the west side, whilst a chorus of Dark Bush-crickets chirped away. #ukbutterflies #invertebrates #bugsky

The Great Orme was busy with birds (and birders!) today, with a variety of migrants making the most of a still day. Great to see the 2 showy Firecrest, found by @marcbuzzard.bsky.social - both in the same Hawthorn at one point! Also Brambling, 2 Wheatear and 20+ Redwing. #birdingwales #ukbirding

After failing to pick up any Yellow-browed Warblers at Wells Woods yesterday morning, a quick afternoon dash for the 1st-winter Red-backed Shrike at Morston Greens made up for it. Great views of our second Shrike species in as many days! #norfolkbirding #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk

The Lesser Grey Shrike at Winterton Dunes showed incredibly well yesterday. A first for me, and a fascinating bird to watch as it fed on a varied diet of invertebrates, including devil's coach-horse beetles, wasps, bees, dragonflies, crickets and more! #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk

Some great seawatching to be had along the Norfolk coast this week, with strong winds bringing the birds close to shore. The highlight for me was this exhausted Arctic Skua that flew in off the sea at Cley and landed on the beach right next to us! #NorfolkBirding #UKBirding
