Saw several for the first time this past weekend. Most memorable were a flock of 12 - 15 Red Crossbills, and the Wilson's Warbler that sat next to me and sang non-stop for more than 5 minutes before heading off.

Since I only started birding late last year I'm seeing "lifers" fairly frequently!

Couple of Grey Partridge (a "brace" I should say) at Edinburgh's Big Nature Festival at the weekend. I was quite pleased as no-one else had spotted them from the hide. I guess I got lucky.

I haven't even considered non-UK species yet

Today I saw the Cassin's Sparrow that has been hanging out in Castaic for the past few days - a rarity in California. Although others reported it as highly vocal and skylarking, when we saw the bird it was being secretive, and only made itself known when it responded to call playback.

Willow warbler

At college lake in tring - was watching a reed bunting, and a willow was calling clear as anything, so I made the effort to get on a higher path and look down on where the sound was coming from... Clear as day it was on the top of the tree calling away... Wonderful
