Great morning out on patch just before sunrise with many singing Skylarks. A pair of Ravens, a Red Kite over head and a single Wheatear to note. @lincsbirding.bsky.social #birding

To reduce disease, we all need to make some urgent but simple changes to how we feed our garden birds. See our website for the latest guidance: brnw.ch/21x1t4w

I had a good two and a half hours this morning with no sighting of the Shrike. It may well be having a lie in, though I’ve never not seen it once the sun is up. Photo from yesterday morning. @lincsbirding.bsky.social #ukbirding

I had my first Redwings of the Autumn over my house last night 14 (mid Lincs). Also nice evening Marsh Harrier a little earlier down the back lane.

With my patch becoming bleaker and bleaker every year, to the point where the once abundant Kestrel is no longer even a weekly sighting. This little Whinchat was a joy to find and spend a little time with. #UKbirds Willingham Lane (Lincs).

Great to be out last night and hear my first Pink footed Geese of the Autumn. Made my night. Along with a faint showing of the Northern lights in mid Lincolnshire.

Only four years ago I would get Tree Sparrow’s all over my patch. Until this morning, my last sighting was April 2022. I miss them so much.

Bees and Butterflies have been having a poor year locally for me. Pleased to see odd ones finally starting to visit the garden.

Probably the best step out of the back door ever this evening, to immediately see this Osprey flying across the skyline😯. North Lincs

Photographer Hugh Harrop has just reported this Turnstone, on the same beach in Shetland as in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. The birds on a Shetland beach depend on habitat in Portugal, threatened by a new airport. #Conservation transcends borders. wadertales.wordpress.com/2019/12/23/t... #birds

My first Common Whitethroat for the year turned up on the patch this morning. Also good to see first Sand and House Martins along with a few Swallows feeding over the lake.

Only the second record of Cetti’s Warbler on my Fillingham patch (Lincs). Been around for a couple of months and I finally got a couple of minutes of good views today. #birds #UKbirding
