A few shots from the pop up event organised by @EssexBirdNews and @BirdAwareEssex this week. Med gulls, Rock Pipit, Turnstones, and a Shag at the end of Southend Pier was an unexpected treat! ๐
Had a๐ถaround Brightlingsea this morning. Nice to see Yellowhammer, and had this Sparrowhawk fly right past me too. Then back to Colchester for a cracking Firecrest - thanks to @simonpatient1. @EssexBirdNews

With @EssexBirdNews Big County Birdwatch upon us, I managed to get a couple of hours in at Mersea this evening. Had a nice showy Corn Bunting and several Stonechat as the best of 30 species seen. #BCBW
