Short walk near Crathorne this afternoon in sunshine. A mix of woodland and farmland. Grey Wagtail x2, Blackcap x2, Yellowhammer x2, Marsh Tit x2, Skylark x7 and Chiffchaff x8. Speckled Wood and Peacock plus lots of flowers.
Found some ‘treasure’ on the beach between Marske and Saltburn this morning. Brown Crab shell and Common Whelk egg cases. A few Sand Martin heading west and Linnet, Meadow Pipit and Skylark. Very little on the sea. @teesbirds.bsky.social
I only heard today that you’d been back in hospital. Glad that you are home and I really do wish you a full and speedy recovery 🙏
Rainbow over Nosterfield this morning. Bar-tailed and Black-tailed Godwit, Ruff and Green Woodpecker (heard). Couldn’t locate the Smew on Lingham Lake but Great White Egret there. @northyorksbirds.bsky.social
A lovely collection, Ted. It’s so good to have some sunshine!
Pretty ice feather patterns on the roof of my frosted car this morning.
At Ropner Park this afternoon: 2 Ring-necked Parakeet, drake Pintail, 15 Tufted Duck, 17 Gadwall and 4 Stock Dove. @teesbirds.bsky.social
Excellent photos, James! 👍
Pale-bellied Brent Goose showing well last Wednesday with the scenic background of Hartlepool nuclear power station. @teesbirds.bsky.social
Great trip to Ferry Road, Hartlepool this morning. Finally caught up with the juvenile Glaucous Gull and bonus Black Redstart. Glorious beams of light on Seaton Carew a little later. @teesbirds.bsky.social
It’s on the cliff top. See the yellowish field in my photo on the left. If you go west along the Cleveland Way from Skinningrove you will reach the obvious rough grassland field on the left.
Nice and sunny now but a trifle breezy
Richard’s Pipit still in rough grassland west of Skinningrove. Came onto the Cleveland Way and showed well on ground for 5 minutes. 12.40pm. @teesbirds.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social
That’s rather special! Lovely image of a beautiful bird.
Pleasant afternoon at Seaton Snook today, though rather breezy. Long-tailed Duck, 24 Grey Plover, 30 Golden Plover, 7 Bar-tailed Godwit, 60-70 Twite. @teesbirds.bsky.social
Fantastic photo regardless Simon. As always!
Or Not/Knot 😂
He’s a lot easier to spot now! Great photos 👍
My sympathies. I did the same myself. It is quite a slog! Sad to see all the Sanderlings chased by the numerous free range dogs.
Sandstorm between Redcar and South Gare today braved by a few, including this Snow Bunting. @teesbirds.bsky.social
Fantastic news! Very well done - no corrections 🤩. Impressive cake too 🍰. Enjoy the celebrations.
Thorp Perrow, Bedale this afternoon in beautiful light
Some lovely autumn colours at Durham University campus this morning
Castle Lake, Bishop Middleham this afternoon: Brief views of the eclipse drake American Wigeon before it retreated into cover on left of this view. Also Ruff, Pintail, Dunlin, Snipe, Peregrine and Sparrowhawk. @teesbirds.bsky.social @durhambirdclub.bsky.social
Lovely photos. I especially like the first flight shot - the crispness of those feather edges is stunning.
My first trip to Hawthorn Dene this morning. What a hidden gem! Lovely views of the first winter Siberian Stonechat and the beautiful Durham coast. @durhambirdclub.bsky.social
My ‘photo’ of the Isabelline Wheatear today at Seaburn. What a beautiful bird, wonderful location and fantastic weather. @durhambirdclub.bsky.social
Nice one Bob! @b0bh.bsky.social @teesbirds.bsky.social
