Great views of these Black Guillemots gearing up for spring, at Belfast’s City Quays a couple of weeks ago. Lots of vocalising, display and checking of nest sites #birds #ukbirding #irishbirding #northernirishbirding

Always nice watching Red Kites, with spring amping up they’re all now starting to chase each other around #birds #ukbirding #yorkshirebirding

A great trip to Prague with @alice-louise1998.bsky.social for our anniversary last weekend, a gorgeous city and some brilliant urban birding too. One of the highlights was this vagrant male Syrian Woodpecker, as well as great views of a Black Woodpecker and so much more #birds #czechiabirding

A good start to a weekend in Norfolk with the lads, great views of the Shore Larks at Holkham this afternoon. A quick edit of one photo, before heading to the pub for a few pints and some pizza! #birds #ukbirding #norfolkbirds

Lovely views of this female Teal the other day, looking splendid in the winter sun with an autumnal reflection colouring the water #birds #ukbirding

A small flock of Pintail put on a great show for me on Friday at @rspb.bsky.social Fairburn Ings as they flew past me at eye level #birds #ukbirding #yorkshirebirding

I was treated to some brilliant views of Red Kite at @rspb.bsky.social Fairburn Ings on Friday, it was great watching them twisting around on a cold frosty morning #birds #ukbirding #yorkshirebirding

The sunny frosty mornings this week made for great photographic opportunities, such as this Long-tailed Tit #birds #ukbirding

Enjoyed watching this Great White Egret battle with a Perch it caught the other day, eventually the Perch won and lived to fight another day #birds #ukbirding

I was treated to lovely views of the Hoopoe in Stamford Bridge at the back end of September. Having spoken to the homeowner, I sat in my car watching the lawn it liked to forage on and was treated to epic views with nobody else around #birds #UKBirding #YorkshireBirding #RareBirdsUK

Let’s see how Bluesky does with video. Here is some PhoneSkope footage of the Lesser White-fronted Geese at @flamboroughbird.bsky.social yesterday having a drink #Birds #UKBirding #YorkshireBirding #RareBirdsUK

After dawn at Swinemoor, it was a joy to head to North Landing and watch the seven Lesser White-fronts, one of which is bearing Swedish colour-rings. They spent the whole time bullying their companion Russian White-front juvenile #birds #ornithology #UKbirding #RareBirds#UK #YorkshireBirding

A nice morning at Swinemoor today, watching the two Snow Geese come out of roost with around 4,000 Pink-footed Geese #ornithology #UKBirding #YorkshireBirding #RareBirdsUK

First post! Seemed only appropriate to post some Yorkshire Birds first. Here’s three highlights of a trip to @flamboroughbird.bsky.social last month, during a brilliant afternoon of autumn birding #YorkshireBirds #UKBirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds
