Over the moon (to put it mildly) to find this first year male SIBERIAN BLUE ROBIN in our garden at Hillwell, Shetland this morning. The fifth record for Britain and a first for Shetland. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

What a day in NW Norfolk today; first, the birds, with great views of the White-rumped Sandpiper at Snettisham, plus Lt Stint, 3 Spotted Redshank, Cattle Egret. Early evening visit to Titchwell produced the moulting Curlew Sandpiper and a presumed 2s Arctic Tern🙂

But Hawkmoths stole the show - we found a Bedstraw Hawkmoth at Ringstead Common, with a minimum of 30 Hummingbird Hawkmoth also present, mostly in the lee of the strip of woodland, an amazing sight! Also a Clouded Yellow and a Latticed Heath. #norfolkmoths

The grassy meadow by Old Hunstanton GC/dunes produced 15+ HHawkmoth, 10+ Clouded Yellow and our first Marbled Clover. On to Ringstead Down, and incredible views of our first Queen of Spain Fritillary!! Constantly on view, defending a small section of the main track; Clouded Yellow and 5+ HHawkmoth.

Visited the most famous bramble patch in England this morning🙂, with excellent views of the Long-tailed Shrike, perched up on view for the 2 hours we were there, dropping down onto several Grasshoppers and Bees. Many thanks to the volunteers manning the car park👍. Bonus Hornet Robberfly✅️

##Northantsbirds Won't lie, these photos are abysmal, but so good to see the beautiful Spotted Redshank at NWS this evening (one shows all 3 'shanks together!). Briefly flew around calling when flushed by a Buzzard, showing off those amazing contrasting white underwings 🙂.
