I’m more confused than ever 😂 Decent scares, exposition heavy, alright I guess. Now, can someone talk to me about that ending? Who is Beverly?

Back at Fisherman’s Walk Parkrun this morning. Lovely morning for it.

Concerning thread. Certainly throws the idea of wildfowl vagrancy in doubt. Especially Garganey….

The fact I can see Raven and Buzzard from the house. Yellowhammer, not so much.

Bird thread! Everyone post a bird! Kingfisher, County Antrim. #birds

Bohemian Waxwings for #BirdOfTheDay. Photo from 2023, eagerly awaiting Waxwings this winter. #birds.

Your daily reminder that Israel is committing genocide in Palestine. Israel is targeting journalists.

There’s a Parkrun in the Falkland Islands… Ooof.

You leave Grave Encounters alone. Say what you want about the sequel, but that original is classic. #horrorsky

Dipped on Wilson’s Phalarope for the second time. Bonus Peacock Butterfly and this funky insect.

White Stork #birds Yay for birds feed!

"Sinn Féin and the DUP have stalled the nutrients action programme over fears of a farmer backlash." The *only* thing they'll unite on: ensuring the largest lake ecosystem in Ireland or Britain, Lough Neagh, continues to die of pollution. What a f**king disgrace. share.google/cazBTwCid9qR...

Can’t be much to ask for a Black-Winged Stilt into the UK? As well as the current influx of Glossy Ibis?

Ringed Kingfisher Amazon Kingfisher Common Kingfisher #birds

I see Migfest 2025 is already sold out. Do I start planning for next year now? #birds

Prepping for seawatching season. #birds The ID Handbook for European Birds is back out. Help.

Looks like Parkrun is hoping to expand in the USA. Can’t say tourism into America is a good idea these days.
