This drake Lesser Scaup was at nearby College Lake and a first for Buckinghamshire. It showed well all day and kept everyone happy as it has been a long wait for one.

#birdoftheday theme is #poise, which I think the #rare Eastern Black Redstart in #Norfolk has bucket loads of.

I returned to Melbourne from Flinders Island yesterday and missed the visit of this swift parrot. Don't know if it's the same bird we saw there in June but pretty nice to have around! #rarebirds #birds #Australianbirds #parrots #Tasmanianbirds

On 30th April 2022 I found a red rumped swallow at #RSPB strathbeg. It vanished for a time but then 2 appeared. The photo is by Mike Chandler. Someone asked me if I was sure if was a RRS - pretty sure 😉. The only one I’ve ever found. Spring at its best!

#birdoftheday isn't always common. #rarebirds turn up now and again, like this distant 1st cal year Glaucous Gull I found a couple of days ago at El Jadida. 26 previous reports for Morocco, although only 15 with enough evidence for acceptance.
