    Bumped into (not literally, I'm not that clumsy!) Shaggy for the first time today and Martin who I believe I have met in the past a few times at the famous freezer hide at Rainton to have a look at the current star birds. Have to say I was not disappointed, both Bitterns showing extremely well...

    Had an excellent day in the snow today. Had a lovely walk around Hawthorn Dene with my brother, and we both felt like Bear Grylls! Highlights birdwise were a couple of Marsh Tits in the Tit flock, a few GS Woodies, loads of Redwings, 4 Nuthatches, a pair of Bullfinches, and a million...

    A drake Mandarin was on the pond in Mowbray Park this morning, although I didnt see it when I was on my lunch hour later.

    Very diplomatically put mate. I thought I'd go for the more subtle version! But maybe your version was better.:-O

    I was wondering why It was called a ring neck duck until I processed the photo's, Pic 3 and 5 shows the faint coloured ring round the neck, Well! I'm assuming thats the reason for the name. You assume right!:-O

    Did you get that Gull book for christmas? I got one, its amazing. I was lucky enough to see a Caspian Gull at Teesside last winter. Its surprising how they actually stand out amongst the other Gulls.

    The Citrine Wagtail was showing very well between 3.30 and 4.00, right next to the Sand Martin colony. Viewing from the cafe balcony, I didnt even need the bins at times!

    Nice couple of hours at Daisy Hill today. Must be doing something wrong cos in 3 hours didnt have a single squeek of a Green Woody! Highlight birdwise was a SEO out on the prowl, and a couple of Jays not giving a monkeys that I was within feet of them. Butterflies were everywhere, including...

    Had a terrific surprise when I took Maria to Hurwurth Burn this evening! While scanning the main pool for waders, I watched them all take off en masse. Looking up, expecting to see a Peregrine or Hobby etc, was delighted to see an OSPREY scanning the water below! It circled for a good ten...

    Believe it or not, not every birdwatcher carries one of those pesky cameras with them! Quite obviously you ARE doubting him otherwise you wouldnt have asked! Not only did I see the Temmincks Stint, but I also seen the Egret at Dormans this morning. And I didnt take a picture of either! By the...

    Theres a pair of WHISKERED TERNS at Saltholme this evening. I've just come in from seeing them, they were flitting between the two ponds either side of the main road then came to land on posts on the main reserve pond. The road was starting to get packed with birders as I was leaving. Reminds me...
