At RSPB Bempton Cliffs today, 2 Pied Fly’s, just over 50 Willow Warblers and at least 9 Chiffchaffs in waves passing through scrub mid-morning onwards. The jewel that is … a stunning Wood Warbler! Elusive but showed well on & off to early evening at least.

@AndyJShepPhoto Thanks Andy. They’re actually close to fence around the main Dell. So no skill required! Just perfect opportunity to safely photograph them with zero disturbance.

After decades of hope, finally nailed Red-veined Darter at Bempton RSPB Reserve today! Of course a scorching male, and constitutes first reserve record! Also a reserve 3rd record of Black-tailed Skimmer, an immature male. Hopefully more to come over the week ahead 🙏🏼
