Urban birding! Photos by Felix Urwin (age 10) of the group of 25 Waxwings currently visiting W Edinburgh - in the middle of a roundabout surrounded by dual carriageway running through an industrial estate. He was very excited to see them! #Winterwatch @BBCSpringwatch

Massacring native species so toffs can pay 1000s to off-shore reg'd estates to blast non-native birds from the sky. Does nothing for Scotland financially, spiritually or morally. Why is this tolerated? #ScotlandsShame

@angusjohnscott here's my attempt!

@angusjohnscott unless the little green men are coming, I think it must be. Nice shot. Jealous of your dark skies!

[Peter Urwin @PeteUrwin]

@angusjohnscott Was awesome! Thanks Capt'n Scott!

Well @PeteUrwin and i had the best seat in the house for last forth bridge night's fireworks... Fantastic show.

[Peter Urwin @PeteUrwin]

@angusjohnscott haha thanks dude! 2 sec exposures + cable release allowed instant reaction when lightning appeared!

[Peter Urwin @PeteUrwin]

@angusjohnscott like the star trails in your last shot though!

Followed by some amazing lighting. This one struck the sea off Hythe. St Leonards Church is in the foreground

It raced across the Channel towards us like a giant tsunami!

Friday's thunderstorm in Kent was preceded by an apocalyptic looking shelf cloud

@angusjohnscott check out http://t.co/5PPXMJdR1q and http://t.co/t8CRZM3R2b

@angusjohnscott I saw them too. Beautiful. Got a nice timelapse video but the shutter was keeping me awake so it's only 3 seconds long!

Just managed to catch a nice display of Noctilucent Clouds late last night before the clouds rolled in

[Peter Urwin @PeteUrwin]

And found this one which I'd somehow missed... towering columns of red! #aurora #edinburgh #porty
