    These are awesome. The colours are simply stunning - incredible to think that they are flying around with feathers in those inspiring shades.

    Great photos Vipers. I saw a pair of bearded tits 1pm today, flying from the north side of the Creswell hide round to the reeds by the road, fantastic!! esp the way they mirrored each other. Then went onto the pools at Druridge - thanks to the chap from Whitley Bay. There the thrill continued...

    Stopped in at Creswell yesterday. Caught a glimps of the bearded tit dipping into the reeds a few times (right infront of the hide) a first for me but not a clear enough view to give it a tick. Loads of reed buntings + sedge warblers keeping the eyes moving in the hope of the beardy!! Always a...

    On the way home from a late school pick up had to stop quickly shouting look look grabbing the bins what was flying over but a wonderful Osprey.

    Ok I'm sorry for ruffling so many feathers folks;). I was just so ggrrrr about the nests being lost :storm:. I did consider keeping quiet, but well that does no good in the end + it's something I tend to struggle with anyway!! Coming from north of the border, I was just so thrilled to be able to...

    Loads of Crossbill at Cragside the other day when I went with the children. Was really really sad to drive out to Creswell from the north last week, my heart sank as I saw how high the water level was + my fears were confirmed as I got to the hide! All 3 nests gone. Was cross beyond belief. I...

    Tim your exhibition's a delight!! I'm just waiting for Dave to let me hang something on the wall here ;-) Folks thanks for your kind words, but Tim takes all the credit.

    The warm wind yesterday must have blown lots of swallows + house martins up this way!! A fantastic gathering - 30-50 mixed up flying together just west of the moor rd to Rothbury next to the Cragside pond around 5.30pm yesterday. A wonderful sight on such a blustery day. Not sure if they were on...

    Heard 1st chiff chaff when at Swarland park between 3+4pm yesterday, late but lovely!! Then to top of the day a swallow went over the garden around 8pm :-) almost 2 weeks later than most years. Have started spreading the word about the Swarland red kite - so there should be a few more eyes...

    I'm in Swarland a lot so will keep eyes peeled for Red Kites - will see if I can get the 1st shool on the lookout as well!! Did see 1 fly over our house not far from Swarland a few years back but nothing since. Would be brilliant if they were around this area lots!!

    Oh SSong those are lovely captures. I esp love the composition of the heron, reckon that it would make a great lino when the print is flipped, facing the right.
