St. Aidan’s Church at Bamburgh in Northumberland. The first church was founded by St. Aidan in 635; the current building dates from the C12th to C14th, with the west tower added in the C13th or early C14th. 📸 My own. #SteepleSaturday #StAidans #Bamburgh #Northumberland

A side on view of a Eurasian Kestrel hovering with wings uplifted against a blue sky whilst it looks to the ground for prey. The bird is a small to medium raptor with reddish brown body and back. The underside of wings and body is pale with dark spots. It has a grey blue tail and head with vertical dark eye stripe. The eye ring and base of the beak is yellow.
A chance encounter with a Kestrel at RSPB St Aidans last weekend. A successful dive for prey followed 👍🪶 #Flyday #StAidans

It's Thursday, a day I would normally wander around @RSPBAireValley instead of visiting my Mam in hospital. Hoping to get back there soon but here is one of #StAidans favourite visitors from my previous visit #Kingfisher #birds #UKBirding #Yorkshire @thephotohour.bsky.social

A Grey Heron standing at the water margin, surrounded by reeds.
Grey Heron from our walk around St. Aidans on Sunday. The Kingfisher we were looking for was but a streak of blue before disappearing, but this chap stood around for a while before stalking further into the water looking for a bite to eat.

😊 Good Morning 😊 Sitting in the reeds across from the Kingfisher perch in a vain attempt to be first at the table #heron #staidans @RSPBAireValley #Yorkshire #birds #birdingUK

Ace habitat diversity & complexity in @RSPBAireValley #StAidans reedbeds. Niches for multiple species. Alive with #Bitterns #BlackNeckedGrebes #Pochards #Garganey and #BlackHeadedGulls. No accident. Constant tinkering & dynamic management from the site team. Superb. #RSPBEcology

#StAidans @RSPBAireValley is a top place to see #Bittern. We're keeping it that way by cutting areas of reed with a #Truxor. This creates valuable edge habitat, slows succession & helps improve the visitor experience by providing sight lines into the reedbed. #RSPBEcology

Path-side Black-necked Grebes at @RSPBAireValley #StAidans today. The site is always a treat at this time of year, booming Bitterns, cacophony of BH Gulls broken by the occasional eeyow of a Med, displaying waders, pinging Bearded Tits, singing warblers. Bliss. #RSPBEcology

Keen to keep their foot firmly wedged in the hard-earned, highly coveted Golden Welly, the @RSPBAireValley #StAidans wardens continue to tinker. Before and after shot of Main Lake edge. From dull to tasty if you're a #wader. Nice work @Johnpingham @andrewjtiffany #RSPBEcology

If you're a #Lapwing wanting to fledge chicks @RSPBAireValley #StAidans is the place to be. 345% increase in breeding pairs over three years to 89 in 2019 and a productivity of 1.6, well above the figure needed to maintain the population. #waders #RSPBEcology
