Roseate Tern on Filey Brigg, N. Yorkshire

Me too, James!?!?!?

Last Sunday, after the Brid RSPB cruise. Juvenile, half way out the Brigg on the right. He hadn't been sitting there 3 weeks, had he?

It's a big county, but a small world!

Ducorp's Cockatoo/Solomon Islands Corella (Cacatua ducorpsii) - September 22, Buka Island, Autonomous Region of Bougainville, Papua New Guinea.

The species gives a crow-like, two-syllable call -- quite different from the horrible shrieks of its relative on mainland NG.

Black-Throated-Blue male. About 8:30am a month ago. I saw it with my brother. It was awesome! It was picking at a devils walking stick. I heard them everywhere in Kejimkujik, Nova Scotia while being eaten alive but never saw them. I’m a rookie though... :flyaway:
