Melanistic Lapwing, a cracker! @waderquest @WaderStudy
The sun actually shone for the @bucksbirdclub trip to #LMGP on Sunday. The melanistic Lapwing looking particularly resplendent.
Quite remarkable

What a bizarre sight in Norfolk: these are a few of the flock of 20+ Lesser White-fronted Geese at Titchwell this morning, from the reintroduction project in Sweden that has now been running for 50 years. (More pics at cleybords.com.)

Snow now moving in. It will be snowing all night. 15-20cm expected. 2-4cm below 200m west of the Peak District.
Likely turning to freezing rain for a time after 11am. However a continued chance of heavy snow all day. – at Buxton, England

Hi UK, here they come!
Huge start of bird migration from the Waddensea westwards. Currently an bird migration traffic rate of 9000 birds per km per hour. Enjoy 😉
The legs have it, yesterday I saw 2 Great Egrets just 1 at a time 😀 @Willowglass12 saw 3. This morning just the right hand black legged bird was present on the main pool #WyverlaneNR @DerbysWildlife #Derbyshirebirds @DerwentBirder @DanielCMartin1
