Enjoying learning about birds and birding whilst getting as far away from the city as possible.
Great days birding at North cave wetlands yesterday was finished with a starling extravaganza
The final throes are below.

Final trip of the year to Spurn turned up a few little crackers.
Shore larks being one of the first birds of the day was definitely a good sign

Sat on the last Spurn bus of the year. Hoping for a good days birding to tide me over until next spring/summer, when hopefully they start up again 🤞🏻

Belated pics of an enjoyable (but tiring) days birding at Spurn and Welwick saltmarsh. Finally came across some glossy ibis. I was starting to think I might be the only birder who'd not seen any of the influx

CO2 emissions rose by a record amount in 2024. Terrible news. Warming is already affecting birdlife on the planet negatively & the damage is accelerating.
To slow it we can stop flying, drive less, eat plant-based & consume less.

Took the trains down to Oakham yesterday to see the Baird's Sandpiper at Rutland water. Met some nice fellow birder and had a cracking brownie at the cafe. Good day off.

Showing my appreciation for the cracking little Red-necked Phalarope that has been kind enough to hang around until the weekend bus to Spurn. Fantastic bird.

An enjoyable days birding along the East coast. The walk from Bempton to Flamborough brought a number of Pied Fly's, Wheatear & Whinchat with a variety of hungry warblers. Nicely topped off with a smattering of Swifts overhead.

@scarpermac.bsky.social Hope you're well Mac & enjoying the weekend.
I'm guessing you've visited Flam Seawatch Festival before?
I'm currently scopeless but would love to go. Just wondering if it'd still be a worthwhile trip for me as I'm clueless about Seawatching.

Maybe a little bit of a niche subject but...
Any recommendations on audiobooks on birding, bird related matter?
Sometimes work and/or travel offer the perfect opportunity for listening.

I found this box tree moth in our conservatory this morning and after reading up a little more it seems it's not too popular. Beautiful all the same

Finally had the chance to visit Wykeham forest this morning to join a small group in waiting for the Ortolan bunting. Half decent views after a few hours along with a lovely Female Crossbill was quite enough to make it a good morning.

Bit of a late one but a post work train ride meant I got to see the visiting Song sparrow at Flamborough in all it's lovely LBJ glory

The horrifying planning bill, which rips up environmental protections, was drafted with CEOs in mind. We know because Keir Starmer told us, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Great morning on Filey Cliff top with the Eastern subalpine warbler. Eventually showed well and managed to get more than half bird/half stick in the end.

This weekend I got to enjoy the infamous weed dance of the Great crested grebe at North Cave.
Bonkers yet beautiful at the same time.
