Fancied another go yesterday at the long staying Shore Lark at Mow Cop Cheshire, around 49 days so far I believe. Took some time but didn't disappoint in the end.

An interesting 'leucistic' Black-headed Gull last weekend at Roundhay Park had me thinking Med Gull at first.

Nice to get a few hours of sunshine yesterday at Roundhay Park with the juvenile Iceland Gull. Had to wait several hours for the Gull to perform having gone AWOL several times.

Very kind thanks ☺️

I even ventured in lot the land of the Scouse for the Grackle at Speke😜

Great blog mate and I like how you emphasise the love of birds over and above any ‘tick’. I saw a satellite tagged WTE at the Killdeer site and it was a great moment for me too.

#372 on my British list today, Killdeer down in Ripley, Hampshire this morning a rarity for Britain. #birds #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #BirdsSeenIn2026 @birdguides.bsky.social @britishbirdsbbrc.bsky.social

Excellent
