Agree - three excellent covers. Enjoyed listening to them again.

Have you got the app? That always seems to work for me. Very occasionally have glitches with the website.

Lovely illustrations. At risk of making it cluttered, my brain finds it easier to take in information if there’s little short pointers between the text and relevant area of the bird (even though I know most of the feather tracts). I can imagine that’s personal preference though.

Really enjoying the podcast series - and this episode was fascinating. Thanks for making it.

I think there’s too much AI enhancement in that second image - it’s halfway to becoming a Wheatear.

They still have puddles in Spain? Haven't seen one in months here.

If you don’t mind camping, Craignure campsite on Mull has glorious views back across the sound to the Mainland - cottages there too. Also like Port Charlotte Islay and if you want less remote North Berwick is stunning.

This is also worth a read. Similar but by bike.

Sad loss. As a teenager, i loved his writing especially BOLBBB & Gone Birding. Really helped me figure out my identity on the “dude - birder - twitcher” spectrum. He captured something accessible, active and fun in between cosy RSPB magazine and “trainspotter” media stereotypes at either end.

Thanks. the magnetic adapter looks very convient but presumably doesn’t affect shake much? What software is it and do you recommend video over photos for less shake? V impressive results. Thanks

That’s so much better than my blurry and shaky iPhone through a swaro atc efforts. What’s your setup?

Really bad photo of a deaths head hawkmoth?

Crazy odds - especially as the observer coverage in those types of locations must be pretty sparse.

Is this different from the Fife bird because of overlapping dates?

I wondered if an escaped juv Gyr x Peregrine hybrid. They seem quite popular with falconers and variable with some pale birds but I can’t find any flight photos to compare to.

stuartcpw.bsky.social @stuartcpw.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

That’s an unusual Peregrine - never seen such a pale one. Looks chunky too. Is it from a local nest or could it be a hybrid?

stuartcpw.bsky.social @stuartcpw.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Recommend these but if you don’t have them handy a thin bit of plastic with a half centimetre slit cut from one edge can lever them out intact.

stuartcpw.bsky.social @stuartcpw.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Are there warning signs? I can’t say I’ve noticed them… it’s been your posts that have made me aware not to drive onto the shingle. (Which I’m very grateful for 👍)

Is it open to legal challenge? Can all the US conservation organisations group together?

stuartcpw.bsky.social @stuartcpw.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

Sad to see. A climate or a management issue?

I wish the UK had put economic sanctions in place against the Israeli state years ago as soon as it was clear their response was disproportionate, rather than being an enabler. I don’t understand why this isn’t being discussed. I don’t think it’s too late to do this now - better late than never.

What’s the reason they are culled? To boost populations of other seabirds which are part of people’s traditional diet?

stuartcpw.bsky.social @stuartcpw.bsky.social · 19/03/2026

Me neither. Amazing looking thing. Huge eyes and looks like it could swallow a grapefruit whole.

Former political prisoner Nasrin Parvaz reads a letter to Keir Starmer signed by more than 100 pro-democracy, pro-justice and anti-war British-Iranians, including other former Evin detainees Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Aras Amiri. Full list of signatories is at togetherforiran.org

Don’t reserve managers get any guidance on the risk of feeding Willow Tits? Does some awareness raising need to be done?

That’s a really lovely piece of work. (I need to improve my art appreciation vocabulary 😬)

Very nice. I’m out looking in West Kent on Wednesday if the weather cooperates.

I did no fly back from Tarifa raptor migration via bus, ferry and train last year. Was a fairly smooth experience with some great seabirds and cetaceans from the ferry. I did chicken out of sleeping in the lounge and got a last minute upgrade to a cabin though. Next time I would do both directions.

I could have easily assumed the left was some Estrildid finch i just wasn’t familiar with.

I know Black and yellow broadbill. The one on the left confuses the crap out of Merlin - ranges from Crismon Finch to Musk Lorikeet via Sri Lankan Blue Magpie….
