@ianbennell75 @Birduder344 @bonser_rich The Stanpit bird turned out to be a very odd juvenile Little Egret.

@Lancsbirder7 @Merseybirders South stack was a bit bracing 😂 The shrike looked miserable in the gale but lovely to see. At least the onshore wind produced loads of manxies in the lee of the tower.

@Birduder344 Car parking needs a phone app, but reception is pretty bad with some networks.

@ianbennell75 Ive lost more in the last two updates than I gained in the past three years.

@ianbennell75 Waiting for Colin to arrive for a Norfolk trip and heard and felt a low rumble. Didnt pay any attention but foind out later.
Stop start on the A1 coming home driving towards this incredible huge black pillar in the distance.

@holmebirdobs Always enjoyed meeting you on my now sadly infrequent (long term health issues myself) visits. I do hope you make a full recovery and hope you are able to get out birding as much as health allows.

@RoseNewbold @HMWTBadger Both Pied. The paler bird has a black rump.

@saddleblaze @Strava @Garmin @StravaSupport @GarminUK I get the same with my walking data. Fenix says 4.6 miles today, phone says 3.9.
The phone distance also increases while travelling as a car passenger 🤔
I’m assuming arm movement and vibration plays a part.

@ruths_portraits Stunner. Congrats on a great year

[Phil Bishop @PhilB86]

@ianbennell75 No info yet. Dartford crossing/Bluewater should be fun

[Phil Bishop @PhilB86]

@ruths_portraits Go for it!
