We have done well for cetaceans on our recent Scilly Pelagics I managed a Fin Whale fishing, two pods of Risso's Dolphins and many bow riding Short-beaked Common Dolphins. @rafaelmitch @griffiths_lyn
Following reports of Common Crossbills in Kent recently Lyn Griffiths and I decided to try and see some. We had a flock of 25+ containing brick-red, orangey-red, yellowy-green and streaky plumages depending on sex and age.

This Semipalmated Sanpiper was found on the road, close to Lighthouse Valley, Corvo. Not a place, where you would look for it…

Partridge Pigeon at Jabiru Airport, NT, Australia this morning. @Birdfinders @griffiths_lyn @rafaelmitch @RobRackliffe
The same species today (Tawny Frogmouth) at roost near Lee Point, NT, Australia. Night birds are just so different seeing them at sleepy daytime roosts and alert at nighttime. @Birdfinders @griffiths_lyn @rafaelmitch @BarryWright12
Tawny Frogmouth from the same session tonight on the outskirts of Darwin, NT, Australia. It's bristles almost look like matchsticks. A truly incredible bird. @Birdfinders @rafaelmitch @griffiths_lyn @BarryWright12 @RobRackliffe
Large-tailed Nightjar from an amazing jarring session tonight near Colivas Rd, Darwin, NT, Australia @Birdfinders @rafaelmitch @BarryWright12 @griffiths_lyn @RobRackliffe
