Guillemot, Bempton Cliffs.

A Razorbill from Bempton Cliffs a couple of days ago. 🪶

Lovely to be surrounded by singing Corn Bunting on a survey earlier today in Cambs. 🪶

I’ve not spent much time at the patch lately, so was lucky to have 5 Arctic Tern waiting for me there when I popped in yesterday. Foxcote Reservoir, Bucks.

Iceland Gull at Sea Palling, Norfolk last week

When you go to Sheringham for the Eastern Black Redstart, and this is the first bird that pops up when you arrive 🤣

Us inland birders have to mostly make do with the commoner species at this time of year. Little Grebe at Foxcote Reservoir this morning. 🪶

Great views of several Garganey at St. Aidan’s yesterday. 🪶

A great afternoon birding at St. Aidan’s yesterday, topped off with this Pectoral Sandpiper on the western reedbed. 🪶

Another Wilson’s Storm Petrel from the Penzance pelagic. 🪶

This Cory’s Shearwater gave a very close fly-past on the Penzance pelagic. 🪶

Wilson’s Storm Petrel, so close to the boat that we didn’t even need bins to I.D. them. From the Penzance pelagic on Sunday. 🪶

A shout of Cory’s went out and I looked up to see it hurtling towards me! Such a memorable experience aboard the Mermaid pelagic on Sunday. 🪶

One of the many Wilson’s Storm Petrel seen from the Penzance pelagic. Such a challenge to photograph with the boat rocking about, and the speed they whizzed above the waves at. 🪶

Had a fantastic Mermaid pelagic trip off Penzance on Sunday. The sight of 15 Wilson’s Storm Petrel “dancing” on the water was absolutely magical.

Not something I’ve ever seen before, Spoonbills in the nest! On the north Norfolk coast a couple of weeks ago.

Black-eared Wheatear (Eastern), from Cyprus in April. I’ve still not finished going through the photos, I really need to stop taking more until I’ve sorted the ones I’ve got!

Some stunning spring/summer plumage Sanderling lingering on Titchwell beach this week.

I spent a good couple of hours sat watching Redstart at Thursley Common, where several pairs were busy collecting food.

Working nearby this morning meant I had the chance to try for the Woolbeding Honey Buzzards, couldn’t believe my luck when one did a close fly-by after 10 minutes wait. No further sign after 2 hours.

A Little Owl soaking up the sun at North Cave Wetlands a couple of days ago.

Two Black Terns on the Foxcote patch today, surprisingly present all day.

My bro has done it, birding Nirvana, a self-found patch lifer. Hang up your bins!

Pleased to eventually get in on some of the Arctic Tern action when one decided to drop in to the Foxcote patch this morning.

Ortolan Bunting in Cyprus last week

I finally saw one of my dream birds in Cyprus last week. It’s always a great feeling seeing a species you’ve only ever looked at in field guides. Collared Pratincole at Akrotiri.

Had a fantastic week in Cyprus, which started with the WP mega Lesser Moorhen.

Went to try and get some shots of Barn Owls in Milton Keynes this evening, this one obviously wanted its photo taken 🤩
