and some great afternoon light for these Long-tailed Duck at Fife Ness #birdingFife

Sooties aren’t usually this close at Fife Ness

No idea where the Fife Ness American Golden Plover has been hanging out for the majority of the past week #birdingFife

AGP currently in high tide roost by Stinky Pool, Fife Ness #birdingFife

Purple Sandpipers through the rain and sea spray this morning #birdingFife

Hundreds of thrushes in-off at Fife Ness this morning, some really struggling in as the strong wind switched from the SE to W #birdingFife

Forgot this function. For any of the locations you enter sightings for in #eBird you can view the seasonal frequency or abundance of the species that you’ve seen there. Here’s an example for Fife Ness #birdingScotland

Last one, you can also set up eBird Patches e.g. all locations that you bird around your village and eBird will keep a tally of species seen in that Patch during the month, year or ever. It’ll even allow you to compare your patch totals with others in your county or country #eBird #birdingScotland

And entering your sightings into the eBird App on your phone is really simple and quick

Plus you can have Trip Reports in eBird, here’s an example from a recent visit to the southern Alps

eBird is really good for very quickly viewing your records of a particular species/ location. Here’s an example for my Little Auk sightings in Fife. Also speedy for species totals/lists for counties, countries and years (or a combination of these criteria).

Quick stop at St Andrews this evening on my way back from Norfolk for the 2nd cy White-billed Diver. It’s good to be back home. #birdingFife
