    Warbler id

    Took this photo this afternoon in Gunton, Lowestoft, UK. Was trying to photograph a quick moving female Pied Flycatcher (without success), when this caught my eye. Presumed initially it was Chiffchaff but the rather slate grey back, not clear from photo, was making me question this. No call...

    Dunlin subspecies

    A small group of Dunlin on Cley Marshes in Norfolk this afternoon. One of which was fractionally larger than the others, much paler overall with a slightly buffish appearance. The mannerisms, bill etc all seemed to be Dunlin like, so I wondered if this was a different subspecies from the more...

    Wagtail Query

    Took these pictures on the shingle bank behind Cley Marshes NWT in Norfolk UK . The bird was on its own, presuming juvenile, but doesn't quite match anything. I forgot to get an opinion at the time & only got round to it today, though I have notes.

    April in Norfolk & Suffolk

    Oulton Marshes near Lowestoft yesterday. Unseasonably warm for early April over 20 Chiffchaffs calling, almost managed to photograph a Cetti's Warbler, without doubt one of the most tricky birds to get a picture of. More warblers in very early including singing Willow Warbler, Blackcap, Common...

    Odd Pipit

    At Salthouse in UK yesterday. Pics don't do justice really. Seemed a strange mixture, very little streaking on breast, none on flanks what there was on breast was largely rather diffuse. Quite a noticeable supercilium and quite a strong slightly rasping 'chirupp' call. It didn't display any of...

    Changes in species distribution - a personal note

    For about 20 years until 2014, I seriously cut down my birding & stopped bird recording in the UK altogether. Coming back to it in 2014 has really opened my eyes (literally!) to the changes in distribution/numbers of bird species in my local are of Norfolk & Suffolk between the early 1990's and...

I've been bird watching since the age of 8, though did much less from around 1995 until returning to it again with a vengeance in...

    Help please with identifying this white seabird off Cley NWT
