A stream of White-winged Black Tern flew over our heads a few hours after arriving in Lesvos. This was the moment when I realised I was birding on a magical island

@StephenMoss_TV Thanks, Stephen! It was at Church Lane, Sedgeford, Norfolk. A few miles northwest of Snettisham. It was feeding on a verge next to a dog poo bin. Glamorous! Time for me to re-read Bill Oddie’s Little Black Bird Book.

@stuttonsparrows Yes, that’s it! Was sure i hadn’t made it up

[Jamie Everett @_JamieEverett]

When I started birding, I always remembered the tale of “Hoopoe only turn up in the Vicar’s garden”. So I followed up on the vague Hoopoe report at Sedgeford by starting at the church. Happy it paid off!

The distant blob of a Ross’s Gull was not on my bingo card this spring!
Thanks @lonsdalebirding for the re-find

Pink-footed Goose ‘NW-7G’ with a GPS neckband sighted at Honey Hills, Norfolk, is wintering in the UK for the first time. This individual was ringed in the Netherlands and typically wintered in northern Belgium. Likely part of the current Tundra Bean and Whitefront influx

Closer views than I was expecting of the Snow Goose at Baston Fen.
Then onto the Crane and Whooper Swan roost at Willow Tree Fen. Listening to some of the best winter bird sounds with your mates is what it’s all about

Settling into Norfolk birding quite well with one Tundra Bean Goose and 118 White-fronted Geese at Titchwell village during a downpour this afternoon

Iceland Gull flew over the Beluga Whale site

[Jamie Everett @_JamieEverett]

Never imagined I would see a Beluga Whale so well on our trip to the Netherlands!!

@limeypomme Cheers Eddie!

[Jamie Everett @_JamieEverett]

Very excited to be moving to North Norfolk at the end of the month!

@NathanielDargue @InstaBirders Thanks mate, so many choices for a patch! Always welcome to stay when you’re down that way

Bit of Christmas luck this afternoon with finding 12 Russian White-fronted Geese (10 ads) at Priory Water. Part of the current influx nationwide, even better that they're local.

Great-tailed Grackle at Holbury appeared settled while feeding on leatherjackets and spiders in the surrounding gardens

Lovely to catch up with @SBO_Jason at Farlington Marshes, where we had a Norwegian colour-ringed Rock Pipit ‘X9Z’.

Ringed at More og Romsdal, Norway in August 2020 and travelled 1434 km to overwinter at Farlington. Recorded at Farlington each winter since.

Green-winged Teal distant at Lackford Lakes this afternoon

A couple of Firecrest fidgeting between the field maple and hawthorn at the entrance to Marina Farm, Thorney Island

Finding this female Lesser Scaup wasn't on the cards today. Showed well this afternoon off the southern section of Swithland Res, Leicestershire.

Even sweeter with it being a county tick, where the hot streak continues.

The Isabelline Shrike sp. at Woods Mill, West Sussex, was distant in the late afternoon. Enjoyable company at the twitch made for a fun outing
