Marj and Pete Cunningham were my YOC leaders in the late 80s early 90s both spent there spare time on a Saturday taking the group all over East Yorkshire. Thanks to these two and others my love for birds and nature blossomed and still after all these years and hopefully many more it will continue.

The Little Terns at Beacon Ponds have made a remarkable recovery, but they need urgent help to thrive in 2026. Your support can fund a professional warden, ensuring these birds are protected from threats. Please share and contribute if you can! gofund.me/83bf3bdd8

Little Terns at Beacon Lagoons @spurnterns.bsky.social · 16/06/2025
The glorious weather has allowed us to carry out our first colony walkthrough of the season. An astonishing 91 Little Tern nests were counted, which is the highest count for the protection scheme (previous highest count of 70 in 1996). We're keeping everything crossed for a record-breaking season!

Seeing as how the action figure pack is in vogue just now, was sent this earlier. Seems legit eh - maxed out credit card, bird guide for those tricky to ID common birds that never usually get looked at, sat nav, twat Quattro, and half a brain............... #UKbirding #twitching
