Black Redstarts in the Lowestoft area can be very hit and miss but this gorgeous male was very much a hit this morning π
Some great views of Iberian Chiffchaff on Westleton Heath, Suffolk this morning. Singing continuously
Definitely! Lovely things π
Good enough for everyone else Iβve spoken to but there really is no need to be quite so argumentative.
Itβs as good as youβre ever going to get but we all know these things never go anywhere.
Thanks for your input
Very happy to find this beauty on Lowestoft South Beach this afternoon. It looked good for a Baltic Gull so I took a hasty phone pic. Id confirmed by people far more into gulls than me!
Early Colletes in the dunes at Kessingland, NE Suffolk today π
One of the five Shorelarks wintering by Kessingland Shore Pools. Now beginning to look quite smart
Whooper Swan resting up on the beach by Lowestoft South Pier this morning.
Indeed!
A great day out in our NE Suffolk home area - Ferruginous Duck, Garganey, Sand Martin and Saucer Beetle at Carlton Marshes followed by Marsh Tit, Bloody-nosed Beetle, Comma and Dark-edged Bee-fly at North Cove
The Waxham Glaucous Gull was busy annoying the local Grey Seals today!
Slightly better photographs of the wintering Humeβs Warbler in Sparrowβs Nest Gardens, Lowestoft today. Probably still need to try again though!
Pleased to see that we still have resident Noble False Widows despite moving house!
My first good garden find at our new abode in Kessingland, East Suffolk - the nationally scarce diving beetle Hydaticus seminiger π
Kessingland shore pools - now 5 Shorelarks, 3 Snow Buntings, 1 Rock Pipit, 4 pairs of Ringed Plovers

Some great wildfowling at SWT Carlton Marshes today - American Wigeon, Tundra Bean Goose and Russian White-fronted Goose
Mezereon (aka Daphne!) - one of the absolute delights of late winter. Enough to brighten the greyest of days - and weβve had a few of those! Breckland yesterday
My very first Harvest Mouse seen last night! Found with use of a thermal. Dodgy picture but at least I got its arse and nose!
Good to catch up with the wintering Green Sandpiper at Dickleburgh Moor this morning @norfolknats.bsky.social

Water Rail showing well this pm from Morrisons carpark in Diss, Norfolk! π
I do love a holloway! January has seen us walking many of the green lanes and byways of South Norfolk. And weβve hardly met a soul!
Awesome! Happy New Year to you all!
I found it there last year! Mine was on the cut end of a big log π
Get well soon Vanna
Just in case you havenβt already seen enough pics of the Sheringham Eastern Black Redstart! Never in my wildest dreams did I think Iβd see a βNorfolk tickβ Great Shearwater about half an hour later. Utter madness!
