Spring birding doesn't get much better than this... male Red-Backed Shrike in Norfolk.

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

No shrikes for me at Blakeney today, but a decent few migrants around, the highlight being this stunning Ring Ouzel.

Waiting for the rain to stop, so here is a memory of a very pleasant, hot and sunny early June afternoon in Bialowieza, Poland a few years ago with @aliceliddle & @Alexliddle88 There were many Black-veined Whites on the wing but very few landed so I was lucky to get this shot.

Sibe/sibish Chiffchaff from Broadwater today - pretty cool to see the Great Northern Diver here too. #londonbirds

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

A couple of very tame waxwings in Newcastle made the daily commute to uni a lot more interesting yesterday @WaxwingsUK

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

A few Caspians and a Yellow-legged gull at a very wet Cromer today.

At last got round to sorting images from the most amazing young naturalists trip to Lundy (See web link) Met some fantastic new friends with a lot of laughs and great memories! Huge thank you to Stuart @Hairybirder, Rosie, Luke and the team at @LundyBirds. https://t.co/SWkkKu0JrT

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

@RetroGamer_Daz @LundyBirds Definitely amazing - very windy but climbing those Lundy hillslopes do a very good job of warming you up🕴

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

What an insane place Lundy is... never seen anything like it - hundreds of migrants in the weirdest places. Thanks to @LundyBirds
for running this, blatently some of my best ever spring birding.

[Danielle Carbott @DCarbott]

An unforgettable trip to @LundyLandmark with 2 spectacular ringing sessions - Firecrest, Goldcrest, Linnet, Pied Flycatcher, Reed and Grasshopper Warbler all highlights for me! Also spotted a Great White Egret, 3rd ever recorded on the Island. Thanks for having me @LundyBirds!

[Reuben Veal @reuben_veal1]

@Lophophanes @BirdingClimate @NTBirdClub @NEE_Naturalist @WallsendWild26 @Hoyinature @david_raffle Very nice, hopefully Jan will deliver. Reckon we're due a couple of white-wingers on the Tyne before long.

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

@Lophophanes @BirdingClimate @NTBirdClub @NEE_Naturalist @WallsendWild26 @Hoyinature @david_raffle Cheers I'll give it a try when I'm back up👍

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

@Lophophanes @BirdingClimate @NTBirdClub @NEE_Naturalist @WallsendWild26 @Hoyinature @david_raffle Not a bad start by the looks of it! Where did you have the Dippers?

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

@Lophophanes @BirdingClimate @WaxwingsUK @NEE_Naturalist @david_raffle @WallsendWild26 Don't think so but hoping for the best with them, can't be long now

[Alex Liddle @Alexliddle88]

@Lophophanes @BirdingClimate @WaxwingsUK @NEE_Naturalist @david_raffle @WallsendWild26 Cheers, and yeah same goes for me, plenty of good looking rowans around where I am.
