Two visits to Inverkeithing to try & see & photograph White-billed Divers. This morning i saw two WBD feeding & sadly possibly a dead bird. This afternoon was happy to see three feeding birds (well done NV). #birds #fifebirding @rarebirder.bsky.social

At least 3 colour ringed Rock Pipits still at Low Newton yesterday, CK, CP and BH. If you see any Rock Pipits please check them for colour rings, the Low Newton/Coquet Island rings are green with white lettering. #NEbirding #Lowcarbonbirding

The usual gull entry for #SuperSeabirdSunday. Yesterday the Iceland Gull at Roundhay Park showed like a champ! Stunning views both on the deck and in the air. @steelyseabirder.bsky.social @unsociable-lapwing.bsky.social #Seabirds #GullsoftheWP #GullsoftheWorld #YorkshireBirding #Wildlife 🪶

It took a while to pin down this lovely dark juvenile Glaucous Gull at Girdle Ness today, after it had been found nearby by @fatpaulscholes.bsky.social Eventually it turned up around the harbour mouth before perching on the pier. #Birds #BirdingScotland #SuperSeabirdSunday #PatchBirding

Amazingly confiding Black Guillemots in Oban Harbour this week. I'm not used to seeing them in large groups like this. Awesome species and one of the few that could challenge Razorbill as my favourite (as much as favourites are invidious in the natural world). #SuperSeabirdSunday

A Sooty Gull on the south coast of Oman #SuperSeabirdSunday (They are native to the Persian Gulf, the Arabian Gulf & adjacent areas.)

A favourite from the southern oceans was Black-bellied Storm-Petrel. Similar to the numerous Wilson's Storm-Petrels they share the seas with from above, they show their striking underside as they bank. Often seen delicately bouncing over the surface, feet pattering. #Birds #SuperSeabirdSunday

Guillemot colony at St.Bees Head. #SuperSeabirdSunday

#Birds #Scoter Being 900km from the ocean, seabirds are not a common sight. In 2021 a pair of Surf Scoters showed up in May and, stayed for a couple of weeks. They fished In a backwater off of the Nechako River. Perfect candidates for #SuperSeabirdSunday.

Pale Bellied Brent Geese overwintering in Wirral waters. #SuperSeabirdSunday #Sundayvibes

Here are a couple of Southern Giant Petrels, seen recently in the South Atlantic and Antarctic. They have a face only a mother could love, but also a striking white phase that was regularly seen in Antarctica. #Birds #SuperSeabirdSunday

#SuperSeabirdSunday it’s as much about the blue sky as it is about the Common Tern on the Northumberland coast. It seems like months since we’ve seen either!! @steelyseabirder.bsky.social

#SuperSeabirdSunday Black-headed Gull

As it’s #SuperSeabirdSunday, all I can say is one good tern deserves another. xx

Old Thames barges have been deliberately sunk in the Blackwater Estuary, to create a new island habitat for birds:

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #GullsInWater. I don't see many gulls in MA, so here's a photo of #WesternGulls and a large group of #BrownPelicans at Goat Rock Beach in #Jenner #California (12/30/21). One of my favorite places! 🤩🌊 #birds #SeabirdSunday #photography @robcrank68.bsky.social

Field studies of an adult Shag I chanced upon at my local reservoir this morning. The first here since March 1988, which I also found! 🤭A rather unusual submission for #SuperSeabirdSunday Obviously one of a recent influx in the region. Cheers

Great Shearwaters were frequently seen in the south Atlantic from the Sapphire Princess cruise to Antarctica. It was wonderful to see the intricacies of their plumage up close. #Birds #SuperSeabirdSunday

A South Polar Skua gliding in the snow off the Antarctic Peninsula. These were common in the area but often hard to distinguish from the local form of Brown Skua. #Birds #SuperSeabirdSunday

The Bempton Cliffs Black-browed Albatross in 2022 as I was coincidently looking in the photo folder for that trip earlier, and one from another trip I was reminiscing on recently, Puffins on Staple Island in 2019. #SuperSeabirdSunday #Seabirds

Little cormorant, Thailand. #SuperSeabirdSunday

Just over 100 years ago, the ‘Battle of the Isle of May’ took place with the loss of 104 men. The great tragedy took place on this date as the blog explains; isleofmaynnr.wordpress.com
