A delicately patterned Meadow Pipit perched on a weathered fence post, the out of focus background is a tangle of dead bramble stems.
Last one tonight is this charming Meadow Pipit, although locally common, can't resist taking a snap.

Very happy to find this pair of Grey Partridges on Salisbury Plain this afternoon. π
These are also very thin on the ground in the West Country these days. #ukbirds #ukbirding

Male Wheatear in an almost horizontal posture perched atop of a wooden fence post , the bird, post and rusty barbed wire stand out against the blurred pale green background.
Wheatear from South Walney today, clinging to the fence post in the face of a fairly stiff breeze*

Abberton today with Carla produced distant views of the Bonaparteβs Gull early pm. Later, at Layer Breton causeway, the Bonaparteβs dropped in, in front of us, before quickly heading off high west. Also 2 Arctic Tern & 20+ Yellow Wagtail @essexbirdnews.bsky.social #birds #essexbirds #ukbirds
A Red Kite soaring against a clear blue sky. The bird is viewed from below, showing off its distinctive reddish-brown body, pale head, deeply forked tail, and pale patches under its wings.
A Red Kite flying directly overhead against a bright blue sky. Its wings are fully spread, clearly displaying the dark wingtips, large white underwing patches, and its characteristic forked tail.
Three birds flying against an overcast, grey sky. On the right is a Red Kite, recognizable by its angled wings and forked tail. To the left, two gulls are flying in the opposite direction.
A wide shot of a pale, overcast sky featuring the distant silhouettes of two Red Kites soaring high above. Even from afar, their long, angled wings and forked tails are distinct.

Red kite update - I caught 6+ sightings after this (on bike & at home): bsky.app/profile/z3r0...
Mostly same bird, left wing missing a feather. Sadly only up in plain skies. But once passing seagulls. Once with 2 friends (1 in shot).
