Pita-patter!

There may not have been many birds gracing the waters off the coastline of Kuta since arriving here, but a couple of hours spent seawatching this morning was rewarded with a good number of Brown Boobies, Greater Crested Terns and Lesser Frigatebirds.

It wasn't just us who were made up to see the Bali Starlings, we were also joined by three groups of students from different schools who were out on daytrips to see the national bird of Bali and to learn about their much celebrated comeback from near extinction

The three Shore Larks were still present at Easington Lagoons this morning, despite rising water levels and the colder conditions of late @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social

Seven Velvet Scotter and an increase in ducks gave a just reward for engaging in a morning's seawatching in rather bracing cold conditions @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social

With brisk northwesterly winds, seawatching has been the name of the game for the past few mornings, and although generally quietish, I was rewarded with my first Little Auks including this one sat on the sea off Sandy Beaches this morning @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social

Redwing in bitter cold this morning.
