I was too cold to look for Crossbill with @exebirder.bsky.social so I stayed in the car, in the car park. No sooner had he disappeared around the corner when this male #Sparrowhawk flew in and perched up right beside me.

Female Dartford Warbler in East Devon
I had a lovely few hrs, mainly in sunshine today. Looking for my 1st Dartford Warblers of the year. Slow start - nearly 2 hours b4 I saw one, but then they started popping up all over the place! #Pebblebedheaths #UKBirding Also Peacock Butterfly & a few Bumblebees on the wing.
A row of chainsawed stumps around a field, and piles of brash. Plus blue sky and trees (unchainsawed, hurrah) in the background
Facing the other way, more chainsawed stumps around a field, and piles of brash. Plus more blue sky and clouds, and trees (unchainsawed, hurrah) in the background.
