    Two Bundles of Fluff....... and Mum

    The Tawnies by my house have two young again this year, aren't they adorable! They can fly short distances between the branches but haven't left the tree yet. It is nervewracking watching them hop about the branches above the river! After 8pm they 'squeak' constantly begging for food. I'm sure...

    Hi everyone, I thought I’d post a few pics from my local country lanes and hills! I’ve seen so many Yellowhammer and Skylark recently and their display flight and song never ceases to amaze me! Plenty of Stonechat and Raven around too with a group of eight ‘cronking’ and displaying above me...

    He's soooo gorgeous!!!

    Hi everyone, Isn’t he absolutely adorable!! Not just a pretty face either, he is wonderful to watch. Quite a feisty chap; if the mallards get too close he raises his orange ‘sails’ on his back, grunts and lunges at them! He has been on the river here since early December. He tends to spend...

    The hide faces the wrong way!

    My nearest reserve is less than ten minutes away, I usually pop there twice a week. I look out the hide windows across the water and mud and every time….. what do I see?.......a few Moorhens. It is just so quiet. I live in hope that one day I shall be there when some waders or ducks arrive or a...

    Golden Delight

    Hi all, me again! I have been checking Lapwing flocks lately, hoping to find a Golden Plover or two. Then yesterday I heard a flock of 600 had been seen in a field with hundreds of Lapwings and Starlings too. Couldn't resist taking a look as I've never seen one and several of you have mentioned...

    Out and about

    Hi everyone, (I know, pathetic title but I couldn't think of anything!) When I have a free day, I usually chose to go either north west to wetlands and mosses or south west to hills and moors. This time it was north west! After a long drive, I arrived at Whixall Moss, only my second visit...

    A morning with Jack

    Yesterday was birding day! I had planned a route visiting five areas. But after leaving the second, I found poor Jack sitting in the road. I checked his wings and feet and they seemed fine so I placed him the other side of the hedge in a field to recover. After an hour he hadn't moved. I...

    Hi, is it possible to tell whether this is a juv or an adult female? I have to fill in a form and it asks the age of the bird. Thank you (Sorry about the pic!) Edit: I guess not then LOL! I think I'll just leave that box blank! Thanks anyway!

    Mud, muck, gorse and a few birds!

    Had an unexpected free day today. I decided to go to Catherton Common, a place just 20 mins away but one I had only been to once before, when there was a Woodchat Shrike there in July and it suddenly became a very popular place! Last year there was a Hoopoe but that was before I was into birds...

    An Obliging Kingfisher

    Popped to my local(ish) reserve this morning, Venus Pool, for the first time in three months!! Arrived to find I'd just missed two Yellow-legged Gulls which would have been a lifer, drat! Anyway, down to the hide I went and soon a Greenshank flew over and started feeding in front of the...
