Working some sites on Deerness this am, when pandemonium struck at ‘lighthouse quarry’. One of my @OrioleBirding group, Fiona Wright, whispers to me “I’ve got an owl, I think it’s a LEO”….
I have never been so shocked lifting my bins in all my life! F*@k me it’s a Scop’s!!

Over the moon (to put it mildly) to find this first year male SIBERIAN BLUE ROBIN in our garden at Hillwell, Shetland this morning. The fifth record for Britain and a first for Shetland.

Welcoming the 2026 Walberswick cohort of Zitting Cisticola. One of eleven individuals seen recently around the site. I suspect there are more however!

Camping trip in Dorset this week with my nephews, whilst setting up the tents they brought me this dead butterfly. Remains of a deceased Two-tailed Pasha!! Make of that what you will. (Norden campsite, next to corfe castle)

Fantastic news from the Beacon Lagoons Little Tern colony today.
The 100th Little Tern nest hatched!
It’s another fantastic milestone for Yorkshire’s only breeding colony of Little Terns and a testament to the dedication of our wardens, volunteers and project partners.

Wow! - What an AMAZING morning @Bempton_Cliffs I was delivering a 'Birds in Flight Photography Workshop' this morning when I spotted this very rare Brown Booby flying past. Here is a fairly cropped record shot - what a bird - Steve YCN

Just when you thought a @FI_Obs spring couldn’t get better, bumping into this Trumpeter Finch in the north of the isle certainly wasn’t on the cards! A mobile bird but showed well a couple of times. Stunner!
