The American Black Tern hasn't been visiting the tern colony at Long Nanny too often since its chicks died. I got lucky as it did a close pass of the warden's hut today. #northumberland #birding

The annual count of apparent occupied urban #Kittiwake nests in #Scarborough completed! An increase of 19.5% on 2025 with a grand total of 1,323. Let's hope the @northyorksc Gull Strategy gives these beautiful urban gulls a positive future @nybirdnews.bsky.social @bbclooknorth.bsky.social

One of the highlights of our 2026 Argentina trip was observing large numbers of wintering Swainson's Hawks feeding high over the Pampas. Locusts a likely prey. A few were low enough to get photos... #Argentina #Birding

One of the better days at #longnab ! There's been so many dire days this spring. The excitement of a small harrier approaching from the north....no time wasted getting lots of photos (Montys)! then a slow walk back and I noticed a female Red-backed Shrike on a distant hedge @nybirdnews.bsky.social

One of my most wanted birds on my recent Antarctica/South America trip was Magellanic Woodpecker, having dipped this species 22 years ago in Chile. A wonderful treat to bump into a family party at Tierra Del Fuego National Park in January. #chile #birds ##ornithology

Another failed attempt to find anything in the gullies yesterday but did manage a patch first...BASKING SHARK sailed south mid-morning. A ringtail Hen Harrier north over the sea was a bonus. #longnab #Scarborough @nybirdnews.bsky.social
