Brian McCloskey @brianmccloskey98.bsky.social · 12/03/2025We finally arrived to the wadi north of Ouadane, Mauritania on Monday evening. It took a lot of effort but we finally dug out the three northern Mauritanian WP specialities - African Grey Woodpecker, Blue-naped Mousebird and Golden Nightjar. 0222

Brian McCloskey @brianmccloskey98.bsky.social · 25/12/2024My first post on Bluesky. Some of the better birds I’ve seen in Ireland and the Western Palearctic this year. I have big plans to target some more very rare species in the WP next year. Algerian Nuthatch, South Polar Skua, Caspian Tit and Yellow-crowned Night Heron pics attached. 2472
