The beach getting popular for some getting ready to leave. Looking across to Spurn the skies were dotted with comings and goings. #lincsbirding #ukbirding

A recent sighting at Covenham of this Ringed plover, sporting coloured rings and a metal band and I have just received confirmation that it was ringed in Iceland in 2024 at Dyrhólaey. #lincsbirding

This is the third time a pair of Common Terns have raised chicks near Tealby, but this is the first time they have raised three instead of the previous years couple. Sat and watched this Hornet for ten minutes lapping sap close by too. #lincsbirding

Our local Martin colony has now added another three cups, giving them a total of 13 now overlooking the sea. Three are solely on plastic, the other ten at least have a brick back wall support. #lincsbirding

The warm weather certainly favours the Lepidoptera at the moment. Most things staying high in the canopy, but the occasional foray down… even a single winged raggedy Scarlet tiger. #lincsbirding

Good numbers of banded Demoiselles at the blow wells yesterday. A few Emperors and a single Hairy, but the Demoiselles are hard to beat in the looks and flight dept. A Gropper singing, Hobby and a Marsh harrier kept the bird interest. #lincsbirding
