A totally earth shattering moment when a Rufous-tailed Robin appeared in front of me at South Landing @flamboroughbird.bsky.social this morning. Still trying to process it! Very pleased a few others managed to see it this afternoon. Not sure I’ll top this one for a while! #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk

Great to spend last week up in the north of Scotland giving talks on my research to @scottishbirding.bsky.social branches in Inverness, Caithness & Orkney. Thank you to each branch for the warm welcome, attentive audiences and interesting questions!

Enjoyed a superb birding trip to Shetland from 9th-13th October with @birdingscot.bsky.social, @louisbackstrom.bsky.social, @tomrosas.bsky.social, and James Weeks. Heaps of good birds, but the Grey-cheeked Thrush at Easter Quarff and Golden Oriole at Tresta were definite standouts. #BirdingScotland

Delighted to find this Snow Bunting at Out Head, St Andrews earlier today. #birdingFife #BirdingScotland
