    I think this Grey Wagtail is the female of the family. We were right at the top of the glen now, and there was a family of them around, and very busy they were too. I showed you the young one on Saturday, gracing my Christmas card.

    Seasons Greetings

    Rather than trying to do a typical winter bird for my card this year, I chose this pretty Grey Wagtail, one of my favourite sightings from this year, when we came across a little family at the top of Glen Prosen. The first I've posted since 2017!! I use Paint.net to process my pictures, for the...

    On 3 December, I posted a shot of this bird in the same place, on our substation parapet, looking immaculately groomed. A fraction of a second later, it gave itself a good shake, allowing this last one before flying off. Looking at its rear end, is that grey mass poop, on its way to join the...

    Another shot of Thursday's bird. The white "calling cards" on the substation parapet suggest the bird may have been visiting for some time, perhaps since October. I've only been checking for a few minutes each day. Thank you for your comments, good birding! John

    The rainwater pool on our substation roof is now more extensive, and when I checked yesterday, this much hoped-for visitor was feeding there. Thank you for your comments, and good birding! John

    On the roof of our substation last year. So far this autumn, there hasn't been enough rain for a pool to form. Thank you for your comments, stay safe and well. John

    Nothing to see here, folks!

    After scanning the sea for a while (lots of seabirds out there, but none close enough for photos) we walked through a small park (Mute Swan nesting, so can't post photos of that) and then southwards along a coastal trail to a pair of hides overlooking a tidal marsh.
