Simply Amazing

Cheggered this off the internet, but makes you think.

A Rock Pipit from the Low Newton colour ringing project has been seen in Norway ! It's the first sighting of a Rock Pipit from this project outside of the UK. Green HV was ringed at Newton on 31 March 2025. It was photographed near Stavangar on 6 April 2026. #NEbirding #BirdRinging #BirdBanding

Sky Sports really are pathetic. Keith Downing talking about the Southampton issue - right now, the presenter just said: "Here I am, standing in front of the tree. This is the tree where the individual in question was photographed spying on the players." I mean really? 😭😭😭

Pretend you're in The Sound of Music by asking a nun if she'll marry your dad

This is how the Israeli minister Ben-Gvir is treating the European hostages Israel kidnapped in International Waters. Where is the outrage? Our Media and Politicians are owned, get them OUT.

I'm not a plumber. But I'm pretty sure that's not how sinks work.

He’s back!!! We just captured male Bobolink LGB (light blue, green, blue) for the third year in a row here in Oswego. That means he’s been down to Paraguay and back at least three times- flying roughly 30,000 total miles! Simply an incredible feat for a bird that weighs as much as six nickels. 🤯

"Tice’s comments came in a combative interview where he threatened to walk out when presented with information from the [IPCC]. Tice…declined to name advisers who convinced him the scientific consensus was wrong." Extraordinary interview by @akshatrathi.bsky.social & @oliviarudgard.bsky.social

Listen to how outraged all the MPs are when they are told they shouldn't be allowed to drink unlimited discount booze at work. It's time to get rid of this ridiculous benefit and all the MPs who support it.

well done, football. now do man city.

Hughie Stirling, 68 was kidnapped last night by Israel in international waters and he is being illegally held hostage. The Media is barely reporting it, I hope you will get the message out, and get him home from these evil terrorists.

Common Gull colony count submissions were entered for just 7 sites in 2025, down from 194 in 2018.

Euston, we have a problem.

Back when fitness regimes meant something..

In Italy they passed a Law allowing the assets related to the Mafia to be seized without compensation. We need to do that with the criminal Water Companies who are poisoning our water for profit.

Somebody needs to dig up the courage and release the unredacted files.

This one’s not so funny.🤬🤬

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES DAY 15 MAY 2026 TRUMP/ CHYYYNA Trump Humiliated A DIPLOMATIC FAILURE ZERO POLICY BREAKTHROUGHS IRAN CONFLICT NO LARGE CORPORATE DEALS XI ... on TAIWAN "Most Important Issue " Trump WEAK This CHYYYNA trip costs us $13million for ROSE SEEDS & the rose garden is gone

When I heard the theory that the cruise ship hantavirus outbreak originated at a landfill in Argentina that is popular with birders, I had questions. I visited that dump on a bird-watching trip last year. It seemed like an unlikely infection site. So I did some digging. Here's what I found out 🧪 🪶

Max Blumenthal drops a bombshell. The Pentagon is funneling massive contracts to drone companies personally owned by Trump's sons. He exposes one of these firms is an Israeli company producing tech for the disastrous Iran war, calling it the most corrupt administration ever.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

A fun fact is that Charles Tunnicliffe and Eric Ravilious were at college together and shared digs.

😂

This is profoundly embarrassing stuff. The man is the Director of the FBI and it's actually important that his credibility not be in tatters.

Hilarious video of Donald Trump's tweets being read out in Gollum's voice by the actor.

Antisemitism has been reduced to a political smear, a word that politicians and the Media use against people who oppose Israel's War Crimes because they have absolutely nothing else to defend themselves with.

I think "wholly unconfirmed report of possible" is my all-time favourite bird news phrase. Basically means "we don't believe a word of this"! 😂

I just did a YouGov survey, and Zack Polanski was the *only* politician to be named in a question. Specifically in this question. No other party leader or MP was mentioned by name in any other section of the entire survey. I complained in the free text feedback box at the end 🙄

When DAVID BOWIE attended PETER SELLER’s 50th birthday party in L.A. in 1975 he put together an impromptu band called ‘Trading Faces’ - including Bowie (sax), Bill Wyman (bass), Ron Wood (guitar), Joe Cocker (vocals), Jesse Ed Davis (guitar), Keith Moon (organ, vocal, drums).

Temminck’s Stint briefly on the Ribble at Brockholes, 12:54-12:59 then flushed by non-birders and flew strongly high north calling. Call can be heard at end of clip when flushed. #LancsBirding

Any "Scouser." Liverpool fan, or Everton fan who's voted for this horrible fucking gobshite, hang your head in shame. Your either a racist or a gullible dopey twat. Probably both. Fuck off & support Chelsea you fucking helmet🖕🖕🖕

Now do Pheasants.

I just can’t. How does anyone support this lunatic?

A word for those waking to find they have a Reform council this morning... Try not to worry to much. We in Nottinghamshire have had one for a while now and, whilst their decision making is appalling, there is some joy to be had in watching chimps try to drive a spaceship.

Ridiculously tame black winged stilt at Portishead Marine Lake today.

Piece by piece we will dismantle and end the bird shooting industry.

Hilarious video that shows none of the Reform voters know any of Reform's policies.

The payoff is … perfection.
