So excited to see the Great Crested Grebe. 🥹
What a stunner! 😍

The UK species pretty much stays local, wintering in coastal spots and then coming back to freshwater in the Spring to breed. 🌸

Feathers and birds in the bush are today’s two themes. Going with both - with a feral’s feathery floofiness and an LLT’s hawthorn heaven

First day in London. Two hours of sleep. 😴 Amazing birds!!!! 🐦 🐧🐤👀

This warbler sized Blue Tit was flitting in the canopy with another. Shocking to see them for the 1st time.

How did we not notice these beauties in trips past?

A flock of 15 Feral Pigeons feeding on the ground in a garden. Most are different shades and pattens of grey, but one is mainly white and another is mainly pale brown.

Positive signs for the kingfisher pair on the island at Walthamstow Wetlands.

If all goes well, the male is going to have a lot of work to do feeding the young.

She's back!

This lady was missing for a few days, but she was back in her usual places today.

Good to see her, as she is very friendly.

Today’s bird of the day theme is ruffled feathers. Reporting this preening wren from a few weeks ago because I hardly ever get the chance to photograph them 🫩

Morden Peregrines. The second egg was laid at 09.14 this morning, 61h 27m since the first (and allowing for the change to BST). She entered the box at 09.03, and the egg was laid just over 10 minutes later! #londonbirds

Saw a tiny speck of blue in a bush on the River Lea down on Hackney Marshes, and it turned out not to be a plastic bag!

It was a bit blustery down there!

An afternoon at WWT London Wetland Centre today with thankfully not too much rain. Managed to get a bird species count of 33, including a decent number of Sand Martins, a dozen Lesser Black-backed Gulls, and of course plenty of Ring-necked Parakeets and Waterfowl around. #londonbirds #birdwatching
