Two Ringed Plover at SBR this afternoon. Also 5 Teal and 3 Wigeon, but a fly-through Dunlin was the pick as it was a patch year tick.

There's been exposed mud like this at SBR for a couple of months, yet it's been pretty much devoid of waders and those that have dropped in didn't stay. Real sad state of affairs.

Eight Ringed Plover at southern end of SBR late afternoon. Also six Common Sand, two Gadwall and a Teal.

Blackwit at SBR first thing was all the overnight rain brought in for me on patch today.

Roosting Hummingbird Hawkmoth on the side of the house tonight. We've had at least two in the garden daily all Summer.

Blackwit on West Pool, SBR at 17:30 plus two Redshank on northern causeway. Naff record shots.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

Worth the nosebleed for heading so far north, and it may not be the best photo, but Long-tailed Shrike on the list.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Plenty of Red Admirals in the garden this afternoon.

LRP with Green Sand and two Common Sand at southern end of SBR this morning. A little distant for any sort of decent photo.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Oystercatcher at SBR this afternoon was #100 for the patch year list, hot on the heels of a Little Grebe (#99) which was present this morning.

Black Swan at SBR this afternoon, spent most of the time asleep, hardly surprising given how far it's flown to get here. 😉

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

One of two Shelduck at SBR late afternoon. Rather distant of the Sailing Club slipway viewes from northern causeway.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

WTE at SBR mid-afternoon. Been present most the day but I'd not had a chance to pop out earlier.

0133

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Two Redshank at SBR this morning, but a singing Sedge Warbler was a better find, the first on patch this year.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

First Redshank of the year at SBR early evening.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

Digi-binned record shot of an Osprey over SBR at 1.30pm before I lost it as it headed south.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Kittiwake at SBR mid-morning. Great find by Pete Akers and I was lucky enough to get there in time to see it.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 08/04/2026

A few decent birds in Mallorca, including an adult and two sub-adult Egyptian Vultures and a couple of Cinereous Vultures, plus a few waders.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 08/04/2026

A total of 91 species recorded on Mallorca, which wasn't bad considering it was a family holiday.

060

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 08/04/2026

A few of the birds I saw during a non-birding holiday to Mallorca at the end of March. Managed to life tick Balearic Warbler too.

Western Swamphen, though I still prefer Purple Gallinule.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Drake Goldeneye at SBR this evening.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Lesser Crested Tern safely on the list! Thanks to all those who helped me get it.

Black Redstart at SBR late afternoon. Dreadful light, not that that makes any difference for my photos!

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 22/10/2025

Steppe Grey Shrike at Mullion Cove early afternoon, terrible phone-scoped pictures, but pleased to see it. Also single Chough on clifftop. Many thanks @runnelstone.bsky.social for info.

Lesser Yellowlegs on river next to Tesco in Truro this afternoon.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

It may just be a single bird rather than a 60+ strong flock, but I don't care because it's a full fat SBR lifer. Present for less than 10 minutes just before 3pm.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 06/09/2025

Ringo at SBR this afternoon with five Common Sand, two GWE and a lone Teal. The long-staying YLG still present.

Tim Farr @suttonbingham.bsky.social · 06/09/2025

Two Avocet at SBR early afternoon, fortunately they did the right thing and hung on patch until I finished work. Found by Pete Akers just before 9am meant it was a long morning in the office. Worth the wait though.
