My best shot of a Golden Hare on #Rathlin #Springwatch

@marcmcflurry One word of caution though is that I find some eiders have a tendency to show small sails when in active display to females

@marcmcflurry Looks good 👍

Travelled to see the Starling murmuration at Lough Ennell over the weekend. Truly awe-inspiring #Ireland

Dawn to dusk birding to bring in the new year - 78 species recorded including this long-staying Ring-billed Gull at Blackrock, Co. Louth

Made the long journey to Donegal yesterday to see the Harlequin Duck and was treated to point blank views

@_Stickybeak Glad it stuck around for you. Very pleased to see my first one on Rathlin!

Great to hear from @NealWarnock that there was a juvenile Curlew Sandpiper in Mill Bay this afternoon! Luckily still there this evening rummaging around in the rotting seaweed with Dunlins and Ruddy Turnstones. Just the third record for Rathlin and the first since Sep 2022

🎉The 2024 Rathlin Bird Report is here!
Another action-packed year of birding on the island, with no shortage of good stuff to cram into our 7th annual report. Available now at https://t.co/IejFGy1o7S

@_Stickybeak Hmmm, has there been a little bunting yet?

[Rathlin Stickybeak @_Stickybeak]

Well this was a nice surprise for a dreary afternoon - RING-NECKED DUCK, a new bird species for Rathlin! Cannily predicted by @NealWarnock, except it happened to be just up the road on Craigmacagan Lough 😄

Out the front door in Ballygally right now #northernlights

@BMcCloskey_98 Great read Brian. Those moments of utter panic and everyone scrambling up to the grass. Can’t beat the Bridges!

Adult Bonaparte’s Gull along the coast at Larne this evening @nibirds

[Neal Warnock @NealWarnock]

They don’t come much better than a male hen harrier 🤩

A Carabus nitens from the Antrim Hills today. One of the most beautiful beetles I have ever seen.
