When a Tufted Duck shows up in my home Oregon, its a twitch-worthy event-- which usually devolves into hours of searching through Scaup rafts. But these handsome ducks are plentiful & accommodating to photography in London. I snapped this fellow at Rainham Marshes last week. #birding #Londonbird
Eurasian Jackdaw in tall grass
When the appointed day came, the birds assembled before Jupiter’s throne; and, after passing them in review, he was about to make the Jackdaw king, when all the rest set upon the king-elect, stripped him of his borrowed plumes, and exposed him for the Jackdaw that he was. ~Aesop

A late morning/early afternoon wander round Verulamium Park, St Albans. The 1st Winter Med Gull still about (on the boating lake), but no sign of the YBW while I was there #hertsbirds #hertsbirding #londonbird #ukbirds #ukwildlife #birds #birding

What to post as my first post on this platform? My posts are a mix of my vocation - Occupational Therapy and also my passion - nature and wildlife. Here's a Ferruginous Duck that was kind enough to drop in on our local common a few weeks ago. Great to be here #FerruginousDuck #LondonBird #Bird
Today I can offer you a Gull-billed Tern from 1987; on the Plym. A tick for me at the time. A #londonbird w'd be good http://t.co/wn8XUpnwKZ
