Single male Brambling at my feeders today.

The first visit of 2026 to my local reserve in Newport Wetlands.

@slimbridge-wild.bsky.social Wish the person who has this account would update it as the old Twitter account was with daily sightings.

Make this denial by Trump go viral. ABC: Will you release video of that strike. Trump: Whatever they have, we'll certainly release, no problem. Trump 5 days later: I didn't say that, you said that. You said that. This is ABC fake news." LYING SACK OF SHIT!

Philippine citizen here. Read the replies from middle-aged & older White Right-wing/MAGA readers in the comments sections to news posts on FB about the killing. Watch what Far-Right/Alt-Right/White Supremacist accelerationists are saying about the killing. These federal agents are MAGA's deathsquads

My first video of 2026. youtu.be/pJGGvEkFWI0

Reform UK David Thomas' dodgy business practices. It was revealled that his company Dr Squeegees had been taking down signs of his rivals and driving off with them. So the rivals put an air tag on the sign and tracked it to a vehicle on the job. BUSTED Cllr David Thomas of Reform UK Torfaen.

Vaccines save lives - yet Reform council leaders question their effectiveness and spread misinformation. They can’t be trusted with our NHS. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The last of four compilations from Slimbridge showing what can be seen in mid-December. Includes a record shot of a Little Stint, it seems some are now choosing to overwinter.

A visit to the Zeiss Hide in Slimbridge.

It was such a joy to celebrate Hanukkah with Mandy, Kathryn and their son, Gideon. As Jewish New Yorkers across our city prepare to light candles and mark the seventh night today, I wish you and your families a Hanukkah full of light and love. youtu.be/KIxAKyioXng

Another compilation of clips, this time from the Robbie Garnett Hide, overlooking the Tackpiece with a flock of Egyptian Geese being the stars of the show.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Beyond parody. We have an attorney general who is covering up the Epstein Files and a President who is proud he could identify a giraffe

Llanegwad, Carmarthenshire this morning. The River Towy and its floodplain.

Nice day out yesterday with @john-l-uk.bsky.social and @gos-birds.bsky.social at WWT Slimbridge.

Pic of one of the Owls coming out of their tree cavity.

A quick trip to Llanishen Reservoir in Cardiff this morning to see this Great Northern Diver before the weather turned nasty. Great to see though lovely bird.

Avocet 🖤🤍

Few hours at Dawlish Warren, nice views of the Lesser Crested Tern fishing. #ukbirding

The G.O.P. watched this Sacha Barón-Cohen vídeo in 2012 and didn’t realise it was supposed to be satire.

No Hawfinch as yet but nice to see the other regulars in Parkend.

Pied Flycatcher showing well today at Glebelands, Newport in my lunch break. Still a little baffled at the date #gwentbirding #ukbirding

Charlie Kirk and Tommy Robinson have tried to stir up trouble by sowing fear of people just for being Muslim. I’m sure they hate it when evidence counteracts their propaganda. Samir ‘Sam’ Zitouni put his own life in danger to stop train stabbings and Hamzah Albar chased and held a rapist.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Whoops! 😂

Alaska was Russian until 1867, if Russia invaded to ‘right historic wrongs’ would Trump just hand it over? Of course not , but that’s what he expects the Ukrainians to do. A man with no courage or morals has thrown them under the bus.

My latest visit to Slimbridge, always something new to see.

A recent photo from Slimbridge, a handsome Spotted Redshank and a diminutive Little Stint on the bank of the river Rushy.

Some great views of the Dusky Warbler at Walsey Hills, Norfolk yesterday. #norfolkbirding #birds

mountainbirder.blogspot.com/2025/11/a-di... My latest blog about the Red Throated Diver at Cardiff Bay Barrage.

I had some great views of the Red-throated Diver at the Cardiff Bay barrage this afternoon, plus a bonus Grey Seal! #birds #BirdsSeenIn2025 #birdingwales #🪶 #wildlifephotography

Farage: epic grifter

Finally made it to Scotland for the first time this year, and fair to say that we’ve started with a bang. Superb views of large numbers of Bearded Tits alongside the River Tay. #birdingScotland #birds #UKWildlife #photography #birdPhotography #birdsoftheworld #wildlifePhotography #nature #wildlife

Nice few hours at Strumble, 2 Great, 2 Sooty Shearwater, BND, RTD and GND, 2 Little Gull, Arctic Skua, missed the Little Auk. Rounded off with Pallid, M Hen Harrier at Dowrog. #birdingWales Couple of terrible skoped photos of the Pallid.

Teminck's Stint Slimbridge part 1 4K youtu.be/YxnRoyQ4ClM 5 minutes of over an hour of video, mostly recordings of a Temminck’s Stint in Slimbridge. Some of the photos are from subsequent videos.

Temminck's Stint on the South Lake this afternoon at WWT Slimbridge. The wader was pushing the limits of my lens on the far side of the lake. Lifer for me :) Tick.

@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social Nobody should be surprised that yet another unrepentant criminal has been pardoned by Trump. He’s probably being lined up for Attorney General.

youtu.be/wo8VhQGcoYU At first sight nothing to see on Goldcliff Pools but way over behind the island on Bec’s and only visible from the Snipe screen hundreds of waders were waiting for the tide to turn!
