@edwardrlea.bsky.socialDespite birding the Yorkshire coast for 45 years, scarce migrants I've watched in off the sea limited to Yellow-brow & Red-backed Shrike - so this morning's Richard's Pipit @flamboroughbird.bsky.social straight in at number one. A species that has become much scarcer here over the last decade.
Show Post2 pair of Red-crested Pochard on the seawatch with Black-throated Diver. On the outer head winter thrushes arrived in off, Jack Snipe, 45 Twite, Lapland Bunting and 2 Snow Bunting with 3 more at RSPB Bempton. Full details here flamboroughbirdobs.org.uk/sightings/30...
Show Post20 Golden Plover flew over the Flashes at #uptonwarren this morning, 2 of which landed among the 100+ Lapwing (as per Phil Wood). The first GPs I've seen on site for 4 years! Also Green Sand, 6 Curlew, 3 Stonechat. Best at the Moors Pool: 2 Pochard, 32 Wigeon, 12 Snipe. #WorcsBirds
Show PostThis evening was the first time I noticed the Greenfinch roost this autumn. I’m very pleased to say this is now an annual occurrence at my home in Worcester. At least 85 & probably a good few more eventually dropped into the neighbours hedgerow. #WorcsBirds
Show Post3 Tundra Bean Geese in the Pink-footed Geeseflock at Beacon Hill, also Whooper Swans, Jack Snipe, Firecrest, Siberian Chiffchaff and 6 Twite on the outer head. RSPB Bempton held 16 White-fronted Geese, Ring Ouzel and Snow Bunting. Full details here flamboroughbirdobs.org.uk/sightings/29...
