Chuffed to find a Scarce Prominent on my front door tonight in Headley Down - haven't even had the trap out this year yet! Maybe it is a sign 😂😍

Heading down to the coast later today, the mountains have been phenomenal! Although a tad disappointed on the raptor front, traveled 500km these last few days and nothing! I feel like I'm going a bit crazy. Oh well that's how it goes, have still seen lovely birds 😆 #montenegro

I just wanted to just give this Robin a recognition post. A friendly little guy, powered by mealworms from the Obs 🥰

@danwatsonbirder @PortlandBirdObs Skiving?! What skiving? Here for training 🤣...
But yes, super cool! Could never have predicted this when I got here last night!! 😁

Absolutely stunning!! 😍 Moltoni's Warbler at @PortlandBirdObs ❤️

[Genevieve Barrett @GenBWild]

A rather rubbish photo, and to many not quite as exciting as the Moltoni's this morning, but I'm alway still very happy to get good views of a Hobby 😍. This one flew over the obs at about 13:40.

Blessed to find a gorgeous Firecrest on my patch today, a stones throw from my home 😍

This Cuckoo nestling, ringed in a Meadow Pipit nest last summer by Ellie Ness of our #BTO nest recording group in the New Forest was recaptured just 33 days later on the German island of Helgoland. Only the 5th British ringed Cuckoo to be found in Germany.
