Incredible to see a Common Scoter this morning on flooded farm fields close to my house near Rushgreen in Lymm. The water is only two or three inches deep, not the place you expect to find a sea duck. Also Ringed Plover amongst many other species.
Note to self... Don't wait 12 days to try and see a rare bird ! Swift free skys over north Norfolk this morning. 🤨
Took a gamble on the White's Thrush report from yesterday and headed over to Southport for first light. No sign of a White's Thrush and hardly a sign of any other birders - only two of us and one other, briefly, but there were two Mistle Thrush on the wires !
Hearing that Twitter users may be charged a £3 per month subscription. l only follow a relatively small number of birders / groups, no one else. But if some, or most, desert Twitter, there won't be any point in continuing. What's the feeling of other users out there ?
Failed with the Radde's at Flamborough last week but succeeded today with the much rarer Red-headed Bunting. That's twitching for you - deflation or elation. Love it ! UK 399 if confirmed by DNA
A rare dip today on the Flamborough Radde's Warbler. Waited on news at junction 38 on the M62 ready to divert to Spurn if negative. Positive news at 9am saw us heading north from Hull but no sign by the time we arrived. Annoyingly, the bird reappeared sometime after we left. 😡
Went into emergency mode for a very unexpected Sharp-tailed Sandpiper at Blacktoft Sands this afternoon. Cracking bird, good views . No 399 😃
I see Elon Musk is considering making X a subscription service for all users - but only to help reduce the number of Bots of course. We are all going to have to decide whether we pay, or go somewhere else l guess.
A juvenile Whinchat at Lymm Riding School this afternoon. The first Whinchat l've seen in the area for several years.
Dropped into RSPB Bempton on the way back from Hunmanby and managed super views of the Common Rosefinch eating berries in bushes by the entrance to the site. A nice bird to see on my way back and all in lovely weather !
Incredibly fortunate to see the Brown Booby at Hunmanby Gap this morning. Only 9 miles away around 10.05 am, but believing the bird was now in Scotland from reports, l decided to turn back, only to receive a call within seconds from @david93955 to say still there ! Saved the day.
Finally found our local Hobby family this afternoon at Woolstencroft Farm nr Lymm. Decided to go back for a better look with my scope but was thwarted by three hundred head of cattle coming through for milking lol. Will try tomorrow.

100 for the year in Marbury and what a fantastic bird for my 100th, a very vocal Lesser Whitethroat.
Welwick Marsh. Wet, cold. Goosander still present, 20 Blackwits & 3 Snipe over, Whimbrel, Greenshank, singing Whitethroats & Chiffchaff, a few Swallows & Sand Martins, 2 Barn Owls, et al. @spurnbirdobs
An enjoyable morning in deepest Montgomeryshire. Stumbled upon a Goshawk nest! Amazing views. 30+ Crossbill (video 1), 12 Tree Pipits (video 2), 100+ Siskin (video 3), 30+ Redpoll, 16+ Redstart (video 4), 2 Yellowhammer, Yellow Wagtail, Grasshopper Warbler and 2 Mandarin Duck.
Tough getting up @ 515am after a late one @BuRntTruffle especially after that extra Port! Only had a couple of hours before the tide but more #PinkfootedGeese leaving the estuary, a few #WillowWarbler, Blackcap & my first #Gropper of the year singing in the SK paddock ❤️🔊
I think I'm right in thinking this is a Common Mourning Bee!!!! A first for me, if so. And In my garden! @StevenFalk1 @iancbeavis
It's blowing a hoolie here in Hoylake.. Think I should have moved the car before the tide came in #maybeMrsCwilldoit 😉
An amazing day due to the sheer number of birds. Approx. 5000 Redshank, 3000 Black-tailed Godwit, 250+ Knot, 20+ Bar-tailed Godwit, 3 Greenshank, 5 Grey Plover, 3 Turnstone (a reserve rarity!!), 18 Ruff, 35 Curlew and 1 Green Sandpiper. Wellies needed tomorrow! 📸P.Mann
Welwick: Goosander, Tufted Duck, Spotted Redshank, Greenshank, Green Sandpiper, LRPs, Dunlin etc. Peregrine, Merlin, Swallows, 1 Sand Martin, & the usual. @spurnbirdobs
Woolston Eyes has had a ‘duck’ purple patch in the 1st quarter of 2024 with Lesser Scaup, Ruddy Duck, a pair of Ferruginous Ducks and a pair of Garganey. All photos @david93955 Great reserve attracting rare birds. Why not become a permit holder. woolstoneyes.com
@Zeiss40 There was a big migration movement of them last night John ..... I heard 3 flocks go over my house (Stalybridge) between 22.00 and 22.15 hrs.
This GN Diver in front of the cottage this afternoon was very friendly. Even gave me a royal wave as it sailed past. 👋🏻🏴
Patrington: considering the weather, not a bad day. Other than the usual: Fielfares, Redwings, Siskins, a Brambling, a singing Blackcap. But the prize goes to a distantly passing Hen Harrier: a garden tick. @spurnbirdobs
Welwick Marsh: quiet: Probable Richard's Pipit (heard only) (& I didn't put it on RBA!) 2 Willow Warblers, Peregrine, Greenshank. Orange-tipped Mining & Orange-legged Furrow Bees. @spurnbirdobs
@Zeiss40 @billgorton3 @MichaelNaden1 @sheilauganda Fantastic find for our patchbirding group!
@petergknight @MarburyBirds The pic!
I’m out for a walk with @MarburyBirds Here she is, lying in the mud and nettles to get a good shot!
Had my 1st ride of the year to Frodsham today. Best bird was the Water Pipit on Lordship Lane along with 18 Whooper Swans in fields towards the motorway. Also clocked up 70 miles in two days which would explain the aching legs!
