A happy @PatchBirding day yesterday. Two brand new, first ever patch records with Little Owl and Wheatear, both within about 100m of each other. Need to go back for more Owl pics I think 🦉 Up to 78 species for the year now. #pwc2026

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

@acorncarver I love your owl shots. Every old tree and churchyard I walk past, I’m thinking ‘where’s the owls 👀’

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

One of my favourite days of the year when all the Swallows, House Martins and Swifts appear en masse. None yesterday. Thousands today. And a first ever patch Marsh Harrier to add the cherry on top. @PatchBirding #pwc2026

Awesome surprise this morning to see a Red-Flanked Blue Tail turn up virtually on the doorstop. Lifer #201. Only shame is that it was about 500m outside my #pwc2026 patch boundary 🫤 I’ll nab one of those 3 pointers one day!

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

After a mildly disappointing 75 species last year, #pwc2026 got off to a flier today. Water Rail, Red Kite, Chiffchaff and only a second ever Lapwing sighting as a flock passed over. Have tweaked my patch further north this year to take in some more water. 100 here we come!

Gloriously sunny lunchtime stroll with Skylarks singing and a very early chorus of chiffchaffing. Even a few Butterflies about. Spring definitely around the corner. Score up to 55 ✅ Plenty still to find #pwc2025

Gorgeously sunny lunchtime stroll today. First Sedge Warbler adds another tick to the #PWC2024 list which is now up to 76 ✅. The local Egyptian Geese seem to have been busy too. Still no flippin’ Coot 🤬@PatchBirding

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

@PatchBirding @petergwyn3 @Ornid Good vid, gents. But slightly crestfallen to learn my Stork find from last week is to be cruelly denied 😭. Is the Court of Appeal open to pleas of emotional trauma at losing my first ever ‘proper’ birding find? 😉😁

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

@applewildlife @PatchBirding Thanks. What an awesome picture 😍. There was a couple of reports on BirdGuides towards Cambridge today, so I wonder if it moved south?

[Daniel Leadley @Fergley]

Little bit of #PWC2024 magic this evening as I found a White Stork on my patch. Lifetime ✅ and would never imagine I’d find one just up the road. Typically I didn’t have my camera with me but got a couple of snaps through my binos. @PatchBirding
