Apologies to @berniebeck.bsky.social for posting his excellent photo by mistake! Here’s one much more representative of my skill set. Mea Culpa.
Would have been a shame not to jump on the Bufflehead bandwagon this pm at Foryd Bay. Good to meet with travelling birders from wider afield. And what a fabulous bird!
Penduline Tit at Woolston Eyes, Cheshire yesterday. Well worth a few hours in the cold, waiting for a brief but relatively close up appearance.
That would have been me. Stood out in the cold while Pete Haslem does Oakenholt in luxury! The Pinks rarely come over in numbers on WeBs days, and if they do it’s mainly on to Oakenholt. Most I’ve ever had here. Common Sand near the Castle, but no Twite.
Just a few of the 3.6k Pink-Footed Geese that settled over Flint Saltmarsh on the Welsh side of the Dee Estuary over high tide this morning. Volume up!
A short walk in the Clwydians this pm. Few birds higher up, except one damp field which had 50+ Redwing, 3 Mistle Thrush, 3 Meadow Pipits and a lone Fieldfare. Nice views, though?!
The unmistakable and wonderful sound of Pink- Footed Geese leaving the Dee Estuary in the morning.
A sleeping Purple Sandpiper in the high tide roost at Rhos-on-Sea this morning
