Nipped over to Eyebrook Reservoir this morning to have a look at an American Golden Plover found by @leicesterllama.bsky.social Showed well, though distantly from the Rutland side.

Spending time with these beauties is one of life's greatest pleasures. Along with top Gullers.

Screen grabs from last night's session at the tip. No brilliant but good bird to watch and compare with the extremely similar Tufties.

So a pretty hectic weekend. Regretting not getting migfest tickets now or planning it in. So one eye on east coast reports. I decided to stay localish till the #Sabines report from Redmire Reservoir came in. Also managed to see a spotshank on Long lane GP and 3 new Wigeon #ukbirding #vc55birds

Meet South Notts Ringer Kevin tonight to hopefully gain even more data from Lockington Quarry site. It was really good to chat and plan the future and found a pair of RC Pochards as a bonus.

#ukbirding #vc55birds #crofthill still no flycatchers. Loads of flying ants. Best was C80 #housemartin / #Swallow mix. Some young #chaffinch and a pair of #chiffchaff. Nice sunset too

#ukbirding 6hrs invested dipping the #hudsoniangodwit nice #wheatear though. Strange the sighting was called while there was only 4 of us left. Guess the others on the opposite ridge saw it?? I most certainly could not pick it out. 3 main flocks to work through and so very distant.

##ukbirding @RSPBFrampton #bairdssandpiper #curlewsandpiper #wheatear wet morning on the east coast. Bairds was a welcome sight, then a fleeting view of the juvenile Temms Stint. Waders of all shapes and sizes. Then a hop to South Anston for head only views of my 2nd migrating #dotterel #birds
