This bad boy was unsuccessful finding any breakfast in our garden but he graced us with his presence for around 10 minutes 😍 #NorfolkBirding

Called into #BintreeMill to look for the #BlackBelliedDipper late afternoon and luckily Richard Moores found it close to the white bridge #NorfolkBirding
Thank you Steph
And having dipped the dipper this morning I finally caught up with it at 4pm in dimpsy light #BlackBelliedDipper #NorfolkBirding
I really wanted to see the #EasternBlackRedstart in #Sheringham which is such a delightful bird and it performed so well #NorfolkBirding
Started the day with a fine #Brambling in the garden #NorthNorfolk and then went twitching … #NorfolkBirding
Crossbill male
Nice views of a few #Crossbills in a dark corner under some pines at #HolmeDunes today #NorfolkBirding
Right place right time for a change. #LongEaredOwl roosting along the #NorthNorfolk coast today #NorfolkBirding
Nice to find a #SnowBunting on #Cley beach this morning. An unusually mobile and flighty bird as it was chasing and catching flies #NorfolkBirding
I agree it’s a disaster for wildlife, all that work on positive net gain for nature on every development gone out of the window, people want nature on their doorstep. But I don’t read it that environmental NGO’s don’t stand to benefit, although I admit it’s more than a bit vague …
The obvious problem is that nature organisations stand to benefit from the bill and £££ to them speaks louder than those of us who enjoy nature on our doorstep
It’s been a challenge to get a photo of one of our local #LittleOwls as they rarely come out in daylight. Just about enough light at 9.26pm last night to get a photo, so I’m very happy 😁#NorthNorfolk #NorfolkBirding
Thank you, that’s really helpful 👍
Thanks James that’s what iNaturalist said too but my photo looks more like the Stag beetle in my Insect guide (Paul Brock) 🤔
Sorted, I’ve requested a square in an area I know reasonably well
I tried to log in to register a few days ago but I couldn’t get past the ‘prove you’re a human’ test 😂 I’ll try again …
Female stag beetle
Another exciting moment by the pond, a female #StagBeetle crawled out from under a rotting log, appeared to have a drink from the pond then returned to the log again #NorthNorfolk
So excited the camera picked up frog activity last noght in my new pond 🐸🐸😁
Pool party! The new pond gives me hours of entertainment but unfortunately the dragonflies don’t get a look in #NorthNorfolk
Conservationists are warning of an increase in recent weeks of the nesting sites of endangered breeding waders, such as the curlew, being destroyed by dogs.
Mistle thrush
Always a joy to see a #MistleThrush from the bedroom window and they're quite regular visitors here but this one was so close I struggled to get it in the frame! Raiding the Amelanchier tree for ripened berries. Taken through closed window #NorfolkBirding
So thrilled with how successful my new wildlife pond is after just 3 1/2 months, it’s so popular with birds & starting to look like it’s always been there, I set up a wildlife camera this afternoon - I am of course hoping for some rarities 😁#NorthNorfolk
Wow 😍
This little story about Labour’s swift brick u-turn is getting enormous readership - so @teamlabouruk.bsky.social it will be hurting you. Such a simple, positive, happy, cost-free measure to introduce
A treat to see the #BootedEagle drifting high over #BayfieldEstate #NorthNorfolk around midday today #NorfolkBirding
