Striped Hawkmoth in today’s #Jewsgate mothtrap but UK moth-ers will be more interested in this Scarce Crimson and Gold (Pyrausta sanguinallis) #moths#Gibraltar@gonhsgib
Spring in Gibraltar this year, mid Jan to mid April and I have already surpassed the number of Blackcaps caught in the whole of last spring. Get ready for a good Blackcap spring in the UK 👍 #gonhs#birdringing#straitofgibraltarbirdobservatory
One of my old ships passing Portland Bill today. Enjoyed my time on the type 23s, lovely ships 👌 Nice calm day as she floats past, heading for warmer seas I hope. @PortlandBirdObs.

Spring ringing on Gibraltar is about quality. Wryneck, Woodchat Shrike, Melodious, Orphean and Bonelli’s Warbler, Tree Pipit and Redstart. What a morning ! @gonhs#gibraltar#birdringing
A few of you may remember “Three Amigos Birding” our blog that ran for 15 years. The travels of Steve Copsey, Tony Tindale and my good self. Well we’ve moved to blogger. Take a look at https://t.co/L8rA6Mimwp Here’s to a few more years and more adventures to come 😁
This Alpine Swift was brought into #jewsgatefieldcentre this morning. Much larger than expected with needle like claws. Quickly ringed by us and released by the guys at the raptor rehabilitation unit @gonhsgib
