I still have the stone I used to tap on the tree to lure them in just like Sir David Attenborough did all those years ago on Life of Birds.

Don't usually post insect nonsense but this is my 5th Peacock of the day, guessing there has been a weather induced 'mass wake-up'. Also a few bumble bees and got my first wasp sting of tbe season 🐝😡

Superb Stew 👍😍

Thanks for the heads up Bob.

I assume that emoji is you looking up into the trees in the Borough Hall in excited anticipation and not you rolling your eyes at me 🤣

They're here!!!! 🤞😍🤞😍🤞😍🤞😍🤞😍

Plenty of info out there.

Posted twice on Birdguides too. Very few people seem to use RBA locally.

John Grievespn posted it too.

Working in my study with the window open and just heard Black-crowned Night Heron fly over. Called eleven times, it sounded like it was heading in direction of Cowpen/North Tees Marshes. Just wasn't quick enough to record it on Merlin. It was very loud and sounded very low.

Pec Sand still at Margrove at 16:20

That's what happens when you try and message without your glasses on.

Cory's north past Hartlepool close in at 19:35

White-tailed Eagle still at Blakey Ridge this afternoon.

That's very interesting Nick as they have been almost absent from the suburban areas I garden in this year in Teesside.
