Returning adult male Ferruginous Duck at Langtoft, Lincolnshire. Local tick for me. #birding #localbirding #birdingLincs #UKrarebirds
The juvenile Lesser Yellowlegs continues at Etton GP, Cambs. A busy morning here with plenty of Redwing and Fieldfare about, a Great White Egret still, Golden Plover over and a Rock Pipit briefly.

Western Cattle Egret in breeding plumage.
Western Cattle Egret in breeding plumage, feeding on worms.
Once a rarity, now an established breeding species in parts of the UK but still notable to find a dozen Western Cattle Egrets in a field being rolled this morning on my patch.

Probably the second Lesser Yellowlegs for the Peterborough area. Relocated today by the original finder, Hugh Wright. Great bird, occasionally hanging out with a Common Greenshank.
After I left a Grey Phalarope dropped in. Good day for Etton GP.

Finally caught up the the local White-tailed Eagles and makes a change to have something good close to home.

Common Sandpiper on siltbed shoreline.
Female Tufted Duck with her brood of 8 newly hatched ducklings. Another female had a brood of 11 on the same lake.
First returning Common Sandpiper at the Dorset patch on 21/06/25 & today the first 2 broods of Tufted Duck with 8 & 11 ducklings. Drake Shoveler still present. Still no Mandarin broods seen, which is unusual here. @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social #LocalBirding #PWC2025
If you'd told me a few years ago that Little Egrets would be outnumbered by Glossy Ibis and both Cattle & Great Egrets at this site in S Lincs I probably wouldn't have believed you. These 3 (of 4) were actually on the Cambridgeshire side of the river. #birding #localbirding #wildlife
The long-staying pair of Glossy Ibis at Deeping Lakes LNR today, with 2 Great & 4 Cattle Egrets, Little & Long-eared Owls in support.

Recent birding blog-post - My target for the year was 145 species of bird from within Dundee city boundaries. Somehow I passed that number, what would be my 150th? #Birds #Birding #Dundee #Scotland #UKWildlife #LocalBirding #Dundee145

New blog-post. A quick (and expensive) twitch after work followed by showing a non-birding friend some of the variety of local bird-life the next day.
