An excellent day @FI_Obs with personal highlights including, a Citrine Wagtail, three Barred Warblers, and this gorgeous Wood Warbler which showed beautifully on the cliffs at North Raeva.
Pied Harrier; surely one of the best-looking raptors in Asia? https://t.co/HKJQNgXRAB Thailand is a great place for this superb bird

Got my copy today of Andy Bloomfield's new book on Holkham Marsh, courtesy of the Les Bunyan courier service... 😉 Superb, Andy. A must buy for any birder or who lives in or visits Norfolk. Spread the word! @NHarnser@acorncarver
What a mess. Reform are the poster child of political sleaze - with their numerous breaches of regulations and criminal investigations and now we learn actual frozen bank accounts - every day seems to bring a new revelation.... There’s one simple way to end all this - ban political donations. All of them. For the price of a packet of crisps a year - each. We can end the endless scandals of donations.
Appeal for Identification
We’re seeking to identify the individual pictured after the disturbance of a Sche 1 protected bird at an active nest.
Their presence caused the adult birds to leave the nest potentially putting vulnerable chicks at risk during the current extreme heat.
On this my 7th trip to Sulawesi since 1997 I have finally seen the elusive and mysterious Geomalia, incredible views down to 3m as it fed behind an old building completely unconcerned by my presence.
A delicate and mysterious denizen of the highest canopy, almost otherworldly in the hand. Meant to be glanced only briefly… backlit and cryptic against the sky blue. An immense privilege to breathe the same air, if only for a moment. 🩵
Success!
A brand new sign at Bald Hill Beach that I had a hand in!
After the frustration of watching bad behaviour, I wrote to the loc. council expressing my concerns. At the same time, & unknown to me, a birder friend did the same. Council listened!
