5 Shags continue to perform well at Castle Howard, here a blinged adult with a sinensis Cormorant @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

Always go with your instincts but huge doubts when certainly 3 but probably 4 Shags turned up inland at Castle Howard today @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

A male Green Woodpecker showed well on Skipwith Common this morning. A species seemingly on the increase again in the York area following recent declines? @yorkbirding.bsky.social

The Castle Howard Caspian Gull present since the 14th Jan just confirmed as being ringed as a pullus in Poland on 8.6.25 @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

A productive morning at Ellerton Landing with 8 Tundra Bean Geese, 5 Whitefronts & the WTE on show @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

Nice to see what appears to be a Polish ringed 1st winter Caspian Gull in tonight’s roost at Castle Howard - my first site record @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

Another sunny winters morning in the LDV resulting in good views of Whitefronts & Pinkfeet, also Raven cronking over Wheldrake Ings @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

A single Twite again in the flighty Linnet flock along Eastfield Lane, Dunnington this morning. Later Red Kite & Egyptian Goose in the LDV showing well in the winter sunshine @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

A first-winter Caspian Gull at Newburgh Priory this morning which unsportingly jumped into the water before I could check the lettering on it’s green metallic ring @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

8 Green Sand & 8 Ruff on the pool (puddle) at Wheldrake Ings first thing this morning @yorkbirding.bsky.social

A slow evening on Strensall Common was finally rewarded with a juvenile Spotted Flycatcher, also 9 Mistle Thrush, 3 Swift and a photogenic but tatty Linnet @yorkbirding.bsky.social
