A redhead Goosander in heavy rain. Glad there are several hides at Langford Lakes reserve to shelter in - good job Wiltshire Wildlife Trust!
Kingfisher, Great Egret and good numbers of Redwing amongst the other highlights. The cafe here is truly exceptional as well!

Fancy a trip around the British Museum with a weird nerd lecturing you about Videogames?!
This Friday I'm running an evening tour... it's the next closest experience to being locked in a lift with me for a couple of hours.
Marketing is my passion...

A ‘refreshing’ wind made me glad I bought winter clothing when living in Wisconsin so I stayed nice and toasty. Two flocks of Golden Plover were new birds for my sector. Lots of nervous Dunlin with a Sparrowhawk cruising around. Any New Year cobwebs well and truly blown away now.

Without even trying I had my best ever NY’s day with 77 species from Selsey Bill, Pagham Harbour & WWT Arundel. Highlights included 30+ RT Divers, 3 Peregrines, Firecrest, Goosander, Marsh Tit & finishing it off in style - the male Hen Harrier into roost at WWT. And all under glorious skies. 🤞2026

Seven years ago I did an #ebird checklist on holiday at San Diego Zoo (Black Phoebe pic). That was No.1. Today I did Low Tide Counts in 7 sectors of Chichester Harbour to celebrate seven years of a checklist a day.
(It was a lot colder this morning than 27th Dec 2018!)

#BirdOfTheDay theme today is #MostRecent so here are some Brent Geese from this morning. This little group flew in and were drinking for quite a while.

Up early to do a Low Tide Count in Chichester Harbour whilst it’s quiet. Rewarded with my first Avocet for the sector. Then a couple of treats with the c70 strong White-front flock at the North Wall and Black-necked Grebe on Pagham Lagoon - one of the glaring gaps on my county list filled in!

More of these wonderful little Crested tits from my workshop with @PeteWalkden1973 in Scotlands ancient forrests
last week. There are many photos to choose from, all equally to my eyes a pleasing result. Once again spending time with this magical species, I never tire of seeing them every year ☺️
