One of 3 WOODCHAT SHRIKES I found while on my latest birding trip in Spain. This one was very obliging and appeared just beside the road as we climbed up towards la zarga.

After dipping in Norfolk on 21.10.22, adding BLUE ROCK THRUSH to my life list became a mission on my latest trip. We had to go to 1300 ft above sea level for the best chance of seeing this species.

We weren't disappointed!

Great way to start the morning. Flock of c10 SISKIN Carduelis spinus dropping into the Garden to feed up while on passage further North.

Hit the jackpot this morning with this rare Asian vagrant just 10 minutes from home. Twitch on!

Skulky, elusive and distant but soon had brief but good views!

@Georgemoney247 Sorry only just seen this, so probably not much use now... But was near the bridge....although it was roosting under the mill

4th time lucky today! 3 previous frustrating trips and finally managed to see the elusive BLACK-BELLIED DIPPER today when it finally gave itself up and showed well!

Sylvia/curruca are my favourite genus of bird by far. Studying SARDINIAN WARBLERS at close range back in November in la palma,Canaries and unwrapped this book on xmas day rounded up my xmas and Year very well!

Birding in -4c Yesterday Morning.

Unless these birds are moving, they are very hard to find. Even when they are moving they are still hard to pin point. Their camouflage is excellent.
